Born 1880 in Lauterberg, German painter and illustrator Walter Schnackenberg went to Munich aged 19 to study under Heinrich Knirr and then Franz von Stuck, where he gained a reputation for drawings and caricatures. In the following years, his drawings appeared in the art magazine
Jugend and the satirical magazine “Simplicissimus”.

Schnackenberg traveled to Paris several times, where he met Picasso in 1908-1909 in Montparnasse and was inspired by the works of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. He also designed stage sets, theatre costumes and posters, including a signed one around 1920 for his father-in-law’s Europäische Güter- und Reisegepäck-Versicherungs-AG travel insurance firm and examples for Munich’s Deutsches Theater.
Schnackenberg died in 1961 at the age of 80. Here below is a set of vintage posters illustrated by Walter Schnackenberg in the early 20th century.
