Grande Aventura

1907

Edward Penfield criou este design ousado em estilo de cartaz para o livro de James Norman Hall, High Adventure. Um pequeno biplano voa no canto superior direito, contrastando com uma grande árvore curva e uma pequena vila aninhada abaixo em um campo azul profundo. Como pioneiro do movimento americano de cartazes, Penfield usou influências da Art Nouveau e silhuetas marcantes para evocar a solidão e a emoção do voo. O texto menciona a obra anterior de Hall, Kitchener's Mob, ancorando esta peça na era dos combates aéreos da Primeira Guerra Mundial.
