EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a stunning cocktail bar mural in the Berkeley Hotel, Montreal, back in 1942. The mural is an exquisite example of carved and enamelled linoleum artistry, designed and crafted by the talented Fritz Brandtner of Montreal. The mural itself features a vibrant and stylized pattern depicting trees, flowers, and figures that exude a sense of joyousness. Its gay design adds an element of liveliness to the space while maintaining an air of sophistication. This unique piece undoubtedly served as a focal point within the hotel's interior decoration. As we delve into this snapshot from Decorative Art 1942 - The Studio Year Book edited by C. G. Holme, we are transported back to an era defined by its distinctive retro style. The monochrome aesthetic further enhances the timeless elegance captured within this image. Geoffrey Holme's expertly composed photograph showcases not only Brandtner's artistic prowess but also highlights the meticulous attention to detail present throughout every aspect of the bar's design – from furniture selection to overall ambiance. This print serves as a testament to both historical significance and creative ingenuity, offering us a glimpse into one small corner of Canada's rich cultural heritage during the mid-20th century.
