Herbert Henry Asquith appears in this portrait poster, rendered in bold orange and black, a limited palette that gives the face a sharp, graphic punch. Asquith served as British prime minister from 1908 to 1916, leading the Liberal government through the constitutional fight over the People's Budget and the Parliament Act of 1911, and then through the early years of the First World War. Posters like this were built to be read quickly from a street wall, so the strong contrast and single figure do most of the work. The design trades fine detail for a commanding presence.
