Dutch Posters 1875-1935 - part 7

 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 7 of 7 parts on Dutch Posters 1875-1935:

1930  The Matter is the Future of Your Child
Artist: Fré Cohen

Frederika Sophia (Fré) Cohen (1903 – 1943) was a Dutch artist and graphic designer, born in Amsterdam, the oldest daughter of diamond cutter Levie Cohen, a member of the Social-Democrat Jewish community in Amsterdam. Like many other diamond workers Levie Cohen was often out of work. Therefore, the Cohen family moved to Antwerp where there was more work in the diamond business. After the outbreak of the Great War in 1914, the family returned to Amsterdam.

Initially, as a self-educated artist, Cohen worked in her own personal and easily recognisable style, influenced by Art Deco and the strong lines and basic colours of De Stijl, used more for decoration than for function, comparable with the Amsterdan School of architecture. Starting in 1924, when she was 21, Cohen started taking part-time lessons at the Quellinusschool in Amsterdam. From 1927 to 1929, with a grant, she was able to follow lessons on a daily basis. She graduated with a Medal of Honour (the first ever in the Quellinusschool's history). After completing her education, her work became more varied and had a lighter tone.
