Australia lithograph, c.1929, designed by Percy Trompf

Percival Albert Trompf (1902-1964), was an Australian commercial artist, best known for his travel posters. Some of his most popular designs depicted historical events, including the construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.[1]

Early life

Percival Albert Trompf was born on 30 May 1902 in Beaufort, Victoria, the ninth child of Henry Alexander Trompf, a fruiterer, and his wife Catherine Amelia, née Elliott.[2] His family later moved to Ballarat, and he was educated at Sebastopol Primary School before becoming one of the earliest students at the Ballarat School of Mines' Ballarat Technical Art School where he left with his certificate in 1917.[2][3]

Career

In 1923, Trompf began designing confectionery boxes and wrappings for Giles & Richards, a Melbourne firm of commercial artists,[2]before setting up his own studio in Little Collins Street, painting and designing thousands of advertising posters, usually of 25 ins by 40 ins (64 cm by 102 cm) format, and 24-sheet advertising hoardings, for which Trompf supervised all stages of production, including the lithographic printing.[4]

An early client was Charles Holmes (later editor of Walkabout, also a client) chairman of the Victorian Railways Betterment and Publicity Board under Harold Clapp[2] who, recognising Frank Pick's success in increasing passenger numbers by 600 million over ten years through advertising for the London Underground using art by Joseph Pennell, Edward McKnight Kauffer and Frank Newbould, hired Trompf for a similar campaign in the 1920s.[5][6][7][8][9][10]

By 1933 Trompf was well-known as a poster artist and clients included Bryant & May, Palmolive, the magazine Walkabout established March 25, 1929 by its parent body the Australian National Travel Association,[11] and the Canadian Pacific Railway.[12]

In May 1942 he enlisted in the Royal Australian Air Force and was commissioned as a pilot in June.[2] Trompf served mostly at Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea, and worked as a camouflage officer.[2] He was demobilized in February 1948, with the rank of flying officer.[2]

Poster design declined in the 1960s as magazines and travel institutions increasingly used cheaper photographic images rather than specially commissioned graphic illustrations for the sake of faster turn-around and more persuasive realism.[13]

Reception

The colour lithography that Trompf used produced bold, simplified realism in an Art Deco style,[14][15] with wide appeal, especially during the Great Depression. They promoted the simple joys of sun-worship,[16] surfing[17] and bushwalking, which were both then becoming popular alongside a general interest in bodily fitness then pervasive with the young,[18] famously celebrated in Trompf's best-known poster simply titled Australia.[19]

In recent evaluations, Dann[20] and Barnes[21] tourism marketing professionals including Trompf created a visual language of modernity, promotion and consumerism.[22] Barnes cites Trompf’s Commonwealth Railway poster as applying an American aesthetic in depicting Central Australia in which North American pueblos are replaced with Australian indigenous ‘Arunta' men and juxtaposed modern, white, explorers-cum-tourists with 'primitive natives’ men each in formulaic groupings, positions and postures; the colonial figures and their vehicles given centre and stage right to symbolise the future while Aboriginal men are diminished in scale and backgrounded to represent their servility and symbolic position in the past.[23][24]

The nostalgic attractiveness and historical interest of Trompf's posters endure; they have become national treasures[18] and they fetch up to $A12,000 at auction.[25][26]

Personal life

On 14 May 1932, Trompf married Vera Johns at the Methodist Church, Armadale, Victoria, Melbourne, and they had two daughters.[2][2] His nephew (b.1940) was religious historian Professor Garry W. Trompf.[27][28]

Trompf died of a renal infection on 17 July 1964 in Heidelberg, Melbourne.[2]
