Additional Details: This first-edition poster showcases the iconic work of Hilla and Bernd Becher, celebrated for their typological studies of industrial structures. Water Towers, one of their most recognizable series, presents these utilitarian structures as works of architectural beauty. Captured in their hallmark black-and-white, objective style, each water tower is isolated in its frame, highlighting its unique form, symmetry, and structural design.

Published by Achenbach GMBH, this poster exemplifies the Bechers’ influence on conceptual art and the Düsseldorf School of Photography. Their approach to documenting disappearing industrial heritage has left an indelible mark on modern photography. Their works are included in major collections like MoMA and the Tate Modern, making this piece a coveted addition for collectors of industrial art, modern photography, and architectural history.
