ABOUT PRODUCTID 4503
This educational wall chart, designed by Heinz Dost and produced in Germany in the 1970s for the Higher Pedagogical School in Berlin, exemplifies the functional institutional design of its era. The illustration depicts a detailed, atmospheric Middle Devonian landscape, rich in prehistoric plant life set against a marshy, primordial backdrop. The palette is dominated by warm, muted yellows and ochres, accented by olive greens, browns, and subtle greys. The painterly style, characterized by precise linework and careful shading, is typical of educational graphics from the 1960s and 70s. The matte, coated paper surface is mounted on black-painted steel rods at the top and bottom for structure and ease of display. The chart bears age-appropriate signs of use: fraying and minor tears at the edges, slight delamination of the canvas, and patina and discoloration, particularly along the borders. It remains in good condition, with visible marks of time that enhance its authenticity and collectible appeal. This chart echoes the spirit of 1970s classrooms, when learning had a tactile, physical presence and illustrations opened windows to distant epochs. Its colors and details transport the viewer to a time when
