J. Müller-Brockmann, Zürich.
 
In the same style as the previous lot, Joseph Müller-Brockmann designed another powerful image for a different public campaign launched by the Swiss Committee to Combat Noise. He employs a close-up black and white photograph as the basis of the design, in which the hard, right angle formed by the red text and the woman's arms sets up a dissonance that accentuates the anguish on her face. This is the German version. Modern Poster 232, Weill 543, La Femme 93, Muller-Brockmann 159, Plakat Kunst p. 155 (var), MoMA 513.1983.
