Brownbridge (flourished 1930s – 1940s)
Continental Cookery Radiation cooker brochure design
Gouache
21.5 x 14 cm
From a small archive of works by Brownbridge, a member of the Society of Industrial Artists.
A beautiful original gouache design for a brochure of continental recipes, created to advertise Radiation cookers (innovative gas cookers which were sold in Britain in the 1920s and 1930s). Brownbridge’s brightly-coloured design includes boldly slanted text in pink and turquoise, set over a deep blue background; he also highlights architectural gems of Europe, such as the Eiffel Tower. By cooking with a Radiation cooker, the cover suggests, you too can experience the cultural and culinary delights of Europe from the comfort of your own home.
Society of Industrial Artists correspondance (photographed above) is not included; please enquire separately.
