Welcome to the enchanting world of Moriz Jung, a Czech-born Austrian maestro who dazzled the Vienna art scene with his innovative graphic designs and illustrations. This Kunstgewerbeschule alumnus, a shining star of the Wiener Werkstätte, revolutionized early 20th-century visual culture with his playful yet profound artistry.

Jung's oeuvre, a tantalizing fusion of Art Nouveau fluidity and satirical wit, breathed life into everyday scenes, transforming mundane moments into whimsical wonders. His postcards, once mere communication tools, became miniature masterpieces, each stroke a rebellion against artistic convention.

Jung's genius lay in his ability to capture the zeitgeist of Vienna's golden age, his works serving as both social commentary and aesthetic delight. From vibrant café scenes to cheeky animal portraits, his creations pulsate with an energy that transcends time, inviting viewers into a world where the ordinary becomes extraordinary.

Tragically cut short by World War I, Jung's legacy endures in his prints and designs, each piece a testament to a life lived in vibrant color. His work, bridging the gap between fine art and commercial design, continues to inspire, reminding us of the power of art to transform perception and spark joy.

About this collection

Born in the shadow of Mikulov’s crumbling walls, where Czech soil remembers Austrian footsteps, Moriz Jung stood at the threshold of two worlds—one fading, one fevered.

At Kunstgewerbeschule, ink became a second pulse beneath his skin, the hallways of Vienna’s School of Arts and Crafts trembling beneath his restless lines. Through the Wiener Werkstätte, he crafted postcards that never behaved—fine art prints disguised as fleeting ephemera, each one singing with the sharp wit of a graphic designer who understood satire as both blade and balm.

His hand slipped easily between Art Nouveau’s floral seduction and the brittle humor of modern life—Greyhound 1912 caught mid-stride, Bulldog bracing against the wind, while Vienna cafés swelled with smoke, scandal, and faces half-drawn. This was not decoration. This was Austrian graphic art dissolving into autobiography—lines of ink whispering secrets to the paper.

In 1915, war took his body into the Carpathian Mountains, but his vision still walks—vintage postcards trembling in museum archives, museum art prints breathing beneath glass.

Moriz Jung’s life was cut short, but his laughter endures, stitched into every stroke like a joke only history remembers.
