ARTIST: FREDERICK HENRI KAY HENRION (1914-1990) SIZE: 20 x 26 1/4 in./50.7 x 66.7 cm PRINTER: U.S.P.F. II DESCRIPTION: Although no official title exists for this design, the message is clear: the Allies have destroyed Hitler. Each flagged arm—representing the United States, Britain, France, and Russia—tears apart a swastika against a stormy and otherworldly background. Born in Germany, Henrion went to Paris, where he studied poster design with Paul Colin. Being Jewish, he fled to the United Kingdom following the Nazis’ rise to power. He was interned on the Isle of Man as an alien, but gradually wooed both the Ministry of Information and the U.S. Office of War Information with his graphic capabilities. Along with his propaganda work, he created a number of corporate identities for brands like KLM, and also designed exhibitions around the world. (War & Propaganda)

FREDERIC HENRI KAY HENRION (1914-1990) POST OFFICE SAVINGS BANK. 29x35 3/4 inches, 73 3/4x90 3/4 cm. J. Howitt & Son Ltd., Nottingham. Condition B+: replaced upper left corner; minor restoration over creases and abrasions at edges, in image and along vertical and horizontal folds. Born in Germany, Henrion went to Paris to study with Paul Colin and there discovered the works of Cassandre as well as the Surrealists, which gave him a taste for collage and photomontage. He moved to London in 1939 and quickly grew to be a prominent graphic designer. During WWII, he used his talents creating posters to support both the British and American war effort. A well-trained photographer, he uses the skill here for the Post Office Savings Bank. Three colorful arrows are superimposed over a battleship to build a dynamic image (suggesting speed, power and firmness of direction) in which the text has been cleverly arranged; it is a textbook example of all the tenets of Modernism.

It was organised by the government to celebrate the nation's recovery after the Second World War. Although events took place in 17,000 towns and villages across Britain, the central and best remembered site was the new development on the South Bank Centre in Lambeth. Henri Kay Henrion was a German graphic designer who moved to England in 1936, but was initially interned as an alien during the war. However he subsequently worked for the Ministry of Information designing posters including Dig for Victory. He designed two pavilions for the Festival of Britain.
