Vintage German - Easter Egg Vendor Holiday Card
Vintage artwork by Arthur Thiele depicts a street scene where a family of rabbits stop to admire and buy decorated Easter eggs from a chicken who is the street vendor. In German at the bottom left of the card it says "Best Easter Wishes." The German artist, Carl Robert Arthur Thiele (1860-1936) went by the name Arthur Thiele. He was an illustrator of books, sheet music and postcards. He was famous for his comical anthropomorphic animals dressed in clothing and depicted in human-like scenes. Dachshunds were the favorite subject of his. In addition to animals, other items illustrated were sports postcards, brought to life, snowmen, bathing beauties, and WW1 were postcards. The Internet is full of references confusing Carl Robert Arthur Thiele with another German painter of his time named Julius Arthur Thiele who painted landscapes. They are not the same artist. This card is blank inside for your own message.
