Large-format Austrian advertising poster for Meinl Schokoladen, issued as part of a Choco Vienna project and dated 1960. The design is credited on the original label to Krautschneider (graphic designer/author) and was printed in Vienna by Waldheim-Eberle.
The composition features a playful, stylized figure holding a bar of chocolate, rendered in bold mid-century shapes and strong color blocks. With its graphic impact and exceptional scale, this piece works beautifully as a statement wall artwork for contemporary interiors as well as a collectible example of post-war European commercial design.
The poster is presented mounted on a rigid backing board, giving it a strong, display-ready presence.
