Student of Gustav Klimt, Ernst Dryden was an artist and fashion designer who influenced how an entire generation dressed. His graphic poster art brought him fame in the 1920s, and in the ‘30s he designed costumes for film. Lipmann rescued approximately 4,000 of Dryden’s designs, inspiring this book.        Traces Dryden's life and career and shows his designs for costumes, clothing, advertisements, and magazine covers. Ernst Dryden's name is irrevocably linked with those of Bugatti, Cinzano, Hollywood and "Die Dame" - the German equivalent of "Vogue" - for which he was art director for many years. This is the story of an Austrian artist who travelled from Vienna and Berlin to Hollywood where he was a major force throughout the 1920s and 1930s. The book is compiled from Dryden's personal collection of over 4000 individual items. There are advertisements, posters from the First World War and costumes for the Hollywood stars, among them Marlene Dietrich, Dolores de Rio and Tilly Losch. Personal letters and photographs complete a collection which is as varied, prolific and exciting as Dryden's own career.

Ernst Deutsch Dryden, Die Dame Magazine Cover, Spring 1928.

The artwork, believed to be a finished piece intended for a Die Dame magazine cover, beautifully captures an allegorical scene of liberation and empowerment. In this thought-provoking image, we see a woman delicately releasing another smaller woman from the confines of a birdcage. Symbolizing freedom and equality, this powerful visual speaks volumes about the struggles faced by women throughout history. The artist skillfully portrays the significance of breaking free from societal constraints in pursuit of personal growth and independence. As we gaze at this photograph, it becomes evident that it serves as both a reflection on past challenges faced by women and an inspiration for future progress. With its timeless message resonating even today, this historical artwork reminds us of the importance of fighting for gender equality. It stands as a testament to the strength and resilience exhibited by countless women who have paved the way for generations to come. "Dryden/Die Dame/7/CAGE" is not just an ordinary print; it represents an era defined by determination and hope. It encapsulates the spirit of those who dared to challenge norms in their quest for justice. (x)
