马丁·格拉赫

出版艺术范本与童书

马丁·格拉赫是一位著名的奥德裔雕刻师、摄影师和出版商。 格尔拉赫于1872年在柏林创立了以其名字命名的出版公司，主要专注于为艺术家和工匠提供原型和图案书籍。他在摄影原型制作方面的作品尤其具有影响力。后来，他与费迪南德·申克一起在维也纳创立了复调艺术研究所，并成立了格尔拉赫与申克出版公司。在此期间，格尔拉赫聘请了几位崭露头角的艺术家为书籍绘制插图，其中包括年轻的古斯塔夫·克里姆特。1901年，格尔拉赫与申克的合作伙伴关系结束。随后，他重组了自己的公司，并与长期雇员阿尔弗雷德·维德林合作，成立了格尔拉赫与维德林公司。 Between 1901 and 1924, Gerlach published his delightful Jugendbücherei, a collection of 34 volumes of children's books. Each volume was 15x14cm, and combined contemporary artistry with popular fairytales and German legends. Gerlach commissioned well-known artists, such as Carl Otto Czeschka, Carl Fahringer, Franz Wacik, Ignaz Taschner, and others to illustrate and design each volume. Perhaps the most striking of these little gems (and this blogger's personal fave) is Die Nibelungen (1920), which the famed Austrian graphic artist, Carl Otto Czeschka, illustrated and designed with gold print. Ausgewählte gedichte von August Kopisch (1904), illustrated by Ferdinand Andri, is also a favorite, with it's weird little designs and mischievous creatures.
