Dutch Posters 1875-1935 - part 4

 The Dutch have been producing quite high quality advertising posters from about the 1870s to the present day. I've managed to source so many that I will post these in two series: Posters from 1875 to 1935, and at a later date a series of posters from 1875 to 1987. Individual artists biographical notes given where found.

This is part 4 of 7 parts on Dutch Posters 1875-1935:

Nathaniel Sichel (1843-1907) Sichel's artistic career began at the Royal Academy of Art in Munich, where he was trained in the academic tradition by Julius Schrader.

He continued his studies in Paris at the École des Beaux Arts, where he won the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1864 with a painting entitled “Joseph explains the dreams of the Pharaoh.”

This work solidified his reputation as a painter of Orientalist and historical subjects.

Among these, he is mostly known for his depictions of Oriental beauties, dressed in opulent soctumes and adorned with gold coins and jewellery.
