Categories: Europe
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/inspired-by-crows-talented-illustrator-paul-flora1.htmlSome graphic works by Paul Flora are striking in their simplicity and elegance, others in their complexity and precision of execution, but absolutely all carry a thought, an idea, a mockery, an emotion. Perhaps this illustrator will be a real discovery for you.
Paul Flora is primarily known for his black and white graphic works. He once painted for such well-known British publications as The Times and The Observer, as well as the German Die Zeit.
Flora was born in 1922 in South Tyrol, studied in Bavaria. From 1942 to 1944 he was a student at the Munich Academy of Arts. His teacher was Norwegian graphic artist Olaf Gulbransson, who worked for the political magazine Simplicissimus.
Paul Flora's life was full of twists and turns, he became probably the only artist from Tyrol who achieved success and recognition. In the middle of the XX century, his caustic and clever cartoons were published in many publications.
Illustrator Paul Flora died in 2009, and is buried at home, in the Italian commune of Glorenza in the north of the country.
