Postcard Set Svanen
5-piece art postcard set: The postcard set Svanen (The Swan) includes 5 uniquely designed art cards from the eponymous series by Swedish artist Hilma af Klint.
High-quality and sustainable art cards from Berlin: The cards are designed by mikkaneo studio in Berlin and printed in-house on sustainable FSC- and PEFC-certified, acid-free 400 g/m² paper in postcard format A6 (14.8 cm x 10.5 cm).
The cards are produced as fine art prints using a 12-colour pigment process. Compared to standard four-colour printing, this results in smoother colour gradients, richer tones and greater detail. The motifs are also lightfast for years and will not fade.
About the series Svanen: The series Svanen was created in 1914/15 as part of Hilma af Klint's large cycle of works for a temple that was never built. Starting from the alchemical motif of the black and white swan pair, the sequence of images moves gradually from figurative representation towards geometric abstraction.
