What it is
A lithograph poster by Jan Toorop, printed by Samuel Lankhout & Co, selling 50-cent lottery tickets for the Nationale Tentoonstelling van Vrouwenarbeid of 1898; the sheet measures 1160 by 665 mm.
Why it matters
The exhibition put women's paid work in front of the Dutch public, and the lottery paid for it: first prize a jewelled ornament worth a thousand guilders.
What to notice
The whole offer is spelled out on the sheet, down to where the tickets were sold: on the grounds and at the depots.
A cause argued with the long line and the tall format of the Dutch Nieuwe Kunst.
