Józef Mehoffer · General Exhibition of Polish Art poster, Lemberg (Lviv), 1910

What it is

Mehoffer’s poster for the General Exhibition of Polish Art, held in Lemberg (now Lviv).

Why it matters

Mehoffer worked alongside Wyspiański on Kraków’s stained glass and murals — this poster carries Young Poland’s decorative-symbolist language to a national, not just Kraków-local, showcase.

What to notice

Ornamental border patterning treated with the same seriousness as the central figure, the movement’s signature move.

A national art, announcing itself in one shared visual language.
