Karl Feiertag — Girl in a Yellow Bonnet · Art Postcard

Beneath a wide-brimmed yellow straw bonnet tied loosely under her chin with pale-blue ribbon, a curly-haired girl turns her head just enough to meet the viewer's eye, a faint smile at the corner of her mouth. Karl Feiertag worked often in this close, uncluttered portrait format, letting a single face and a single strong color — here, that bright straw yellow — carry the whole card. There's no scene to read into, just the quiet confidence of a child comfortable being looked at. Good as a standalone keepsake or paired with other Feiertag portraits in a small collection. Printed at 10×15 cm on 350 g/m² card stock, one of several close studies in the illustration postcard selection.
