Raphael Kirchner met Robert Boss, an English art dealer, for
which he executed numerous works displayed at the Bruton Galleries

some subjects from the Bruton collection to illustrate some packs

1915/
1917 |
Many illustrations and plates by Kirchner were enclosed in the
magazines "The Sketch" and "The Illustrated London
News", both published in London
The "Kirchner Girl" became the model to imitate for
every English woman: they copied her coquettish way of dressing
- black silk stockings were the ultimate in fashion - and they
abandoned the gaudy frills and constrictive corsets to make way
for the diet mania |
