Item Description

1912 Latvia Poster Stamp Riga Exhibition Modern Sculpture November 18–30 Unused No Gum.

This Poster Stamp Advertises An Art Exhibition Held In Riga In 1912, Focused On Modern Sculpture (Moderne Plastiken). The Design Is Executed In A Gilded Relief Style, With Raised Lettering And A Stylized Floral Sculpture At The Center, Emphasizing Artistic refinement and craftsmanship. This Stamp Promoted An Early 20th-Century Exhibition Likely Held In The Latvian Capital Of Riga, Then Part Of The Russian Empire, With Strong Cultural Ties To Germany And Central Europe. The Use Of The German Language Reflects The Significant Baltic German Community In Riga At The Time, Which Was Deeply Involved In Art, Architecture, And Civic Life. The Term "Moderne Plastiken" Indicates A Focus On Contemporary Sculpture—likely avant-garde or Art Nouveau works—shown during the final two weeks of November 1912. The Floral Sculpture On The Stamp Likely Symbolizes The Decorative Arts And May Have Been Created By An Artist Featured In The Exhibition. Chat GPT
