What it is
A colour lithograph by Burkhard Mangold, printed by J.E. Wolfensberger in Zürich about 1922, for the terrace restaurant of the Kunsthalle in Basel; a table with a plate, a glass of wine, a fruit bowl, a black lady's glove and a flower. 938 by 1312 mm.
Why it matters
Wolfensberger was the great Swiss poster printer and Mangold its Basel draughtsman; the Rijksmuseum acquired this sheet in 1926.
What to notice
No diner appears: the glove left on the table stands in for the figure.
The Swiss object poster, made of a table and what was left on it.
