Beggarstaff Bros


A trip to China town 1890

He used font that is asian style. There are no lines suggesting folds of  his clothing and  any details.  Using red as the background really stands out.
Using complementary color (red and green) draws a lot of attention. 
As far as composition goes square inside square is interesting.



"Kassama" Corn Flour 1900

The artist used simple design and simple color but still have a point across. 
He worked with contour lines, and there are no values or shadows. Although the color is flat it has great feel to it because usage of colors and shapes.





Girl on a sofa, 1895

Here again he used only few colors, but great usage of negative space. 
It is well balance, and red stripes creates rhythm.
