Influences on Dutch Graphic Design, 1890-1990 by Pieter Brattinga chronicles a century of transformative forces shaping Dutch visual communication. From the intricate Art Nouveau posters of the 1890s and the geometric rigor of De Stijl in the 1920s to the functionalist clarity of Swiss-influenced modernism post-World War II, Brattinga traces how international movements intersected with indigenous innovations. Key figures like Piet Zwart, Willem Sandberg, and Gert Dumbar emerge alongside pivotal institutions such as the Stedelijk Museum and Total Design studio, revealing a lineage of experimentation grounded in precision, typography, and social purpose.
