Elevate Your Correspondence with Lyonel Feininger’s 'City on the Mountain'
Experience the crystalline beauty of Lyonel Feininger’s 1918 masterpiece, 'City on the Mountain' (Stadt auf dem Berge), with this exquisite pack of 10 fine art postcards. As a cornerstone of German Expressionism and a leading figure of the Bauhaus, Feininger utilized a unique 'Prismatist' style, where architectural forms are fractured into luminous, overlapping planes. This specific work, created during a transformative period in European art history, captures a spiritualized landscape that feels both ancient and avant-garde.
At RedKalion, we bridge the gap between historical significance and modern craftsmanship. These are not standard stationery items; they are museum-quality reproductions designed for those who appreciate the tactile and visual depth of archival art. Each card is produced using our advanced 12-color fine art printing technology, ensuring the translucent blues and sharp geometries of Feininger’s vision are rendered with breathtaking accuracy and vibrancy.

What are the specific dimensions and paper weight of these cards?
Each card in this 10-pack is A6 size (10.5 x 14.8 cm / 4.1 x 5.8 inches). They are printed on premium 200 gsm (80 lb) paper with a thickness of 0.26 mm, providing a sturdy, high-end feel.
Are the materials used for these postcards environmentally friendly?
Yes. We are committed to sustainability. All our postcards are printed on demand on FSC-certified (Forest Stewardship Council) paper, ensuring that the materials are sourced from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental and social benefits.
Will the colors fade over time if I display them?
Our fine art prints are designed for longevity. By using archival-grade inks and a 12-color printing process on acid-free paper, these postcards offer significant lightfastness and resistance to fading compared to mass-produced commercial stationery.
How long does it take for my order to be processed and shipped?
Because we print on demand to maintain the highest quality and reduce waste, orders are typically processed within 2-4 business days. Shipping times vary by location, but we prioritize secure packaging to ensure your prints arrive in pristine condition.
What is the significance of the year 1918 in Feininger's 'City on the Mountain'?
1918 was a pivotal year for Feininger, marking the transition toward his role at the Bauhaus. 'City on the Mountain' reflects his mature Prismatist style, using fractured light to symbolize a new, spiritualized architectural order following the end of World War I.
Why is the finish described as a smooth matte?
A smooth matte finish is preferred for fine art reproductions because it prevents glare and reflections. This allows the viewer to appreciate the complex geometric layers and subtle color transitions of Feininger’s work from any angle.
