  • Biography

    Berthold Loffler (1874-1960)

    This Austrian artist studied at the famed Vienna School of Arts and Crafts and from 1900 onwards made his living as a freelance painter. In 1906, he co-founded the Wiener Keramik art studio that helped make Viennese ceramic works world famous.

    From 1909 to 1935, he taught as a professor at the Vienna Arts and Crafts Academy. Many of his wonderful Art Nouveau* postcard designs were used to advertise expositions and all of his cards are highly collected to this day. Loffler postcards are very popular.
