Lettered with the title "Ausstellung München 1910" and the phrase "Meisterwerke muhammedanischer Kunst," this color poster pairs an exhibition of Islamic art with music festivals, an unusual combination for a single advertisement. Its designer, Julius Diez (1870–1957), was a Munich illustrator and painter associated with the city's Jugendstil circle, and the flat color and decorative lettering reflect the period's taste for ornament drawn from distant traditions. Munich in 1910 was a center of both German art reform and orchestral music, so the poster captures that cultural life. The record itself is marked as unverified, so the venue and exact arrangement of the events are worth checking against other sources.
