Moriz Jung's 1907 woodcut "Maxi the Ichthyosaurus Turned Man" depicts a fantastical creature, a human figure with the tail of an ichthyosaur, a prehistoric marine reptile. The bold, graphic style, using contrasting black and yellow, is characteristic of Jugendstil, the German Art Nouveau movement. This artwork is a powerful example of early 20th-century graphic design, utilizing strong lines and vibrant colors for a visually impactful statement.
