More beautiful original advertising comprehensives for
Cunard (c. 1965). The artboards are stamped
David Garrett Jr.,
who may or may not have been the artist. Interesting to me not just for
the beautiful handiwork but for the ideas at play. I’ve said elsewhere
in these pages that in collecting I am drawn quite naturally to what I
consider to be beautiful things. Here it is more than simply beauty
that interests me. It’s the creativity that brought it about. I
consider creativity to be nothing short of essential to human happiness
and so seeing such clear manifestations of it as exhibited here is a
profound pleasure.
