Para Todos (For All)
Circa. 1920s
Para Todos was a Brazilian magazine founded in 1918 by José Carlos de Britoe Cunha. The magazine covers originally featured movie stars and film rag but in 1926, José decided to start illustrating the covers for the magazines with an Art Deco style.
José continued to illustrate the covers for 4 years until he moved onto other areas for his artwork.
Unfortunately, if you decide to look at some of the illustrations he made with Para Todos magazine you’ll come to find out that he also made racial caricatures of black people on some of the magazines which is incredibly distasteful and I think we can all agree is something we should recognize as wrong and leave for the past.

Otto Wagner Villa, 1140 vienna Austria 🇦🇹
Otto Koloman Wagner (German: [ˈɔto ˈkoːloman ˈvaːɡnɐ] (listen); 13 July 1841 – 11 April 1918) was an Austrian architect, furniture designer and urban planner. He was a leading member of the Vienna Secession movement of architecture, founded in 1897, and the broader Art Nouveau movement. Many of his works are found in his native city of Vienna, and illustrate the rapid evolution of architecture during the period. His early works were inspired by classical architecture. By mid-1890s, he had already designed several buildings in what became known as the Vienna Secession style. Beginning in 1898, with his designs of Vienna Metro stations, his style became floral and Art Nouveau, with decoration by Koloman Moser. His later works, 1906 until his death in 1918, had geometric forms and minimal ornament, clearly expressing their function. They are considered predecessors to modern architecture.
The Second Wagner Villa (1912)
Another of his last projects was the Second Wagner Villa on Hüttelbergstrasse in Vienna. It was located near to, and in sight of, his first villa, which he had sold in 1911. It was considerably smaller than his earlier villa. The building was designed to be extremely simple and functional, with a maximum of light, and a maximum use of new materials, including reinforced concrete, asphalt, glass mosaics, and aluminum. The villa is in the form of a cube, with white plaster walls. The primary decoration elements of the exterior are bands of blue glass tile in geometric patterns. The front door is reached by a monumental stairway to the first floor. The servant's quarters were downstairs, and the main floor was occupied by a large single room, which served as a salon or dining room. For the furniture, he selected many works designed and manufactured by one of his former students, Marcel Kammerer. Wagner intended the house as the main residence of his wife after his death, but she died before him, and he sold the house in September 1916
Wagner died on April 11. 1918, shortly before the end of the First World War, in his apartment on Döblergasse in Vienna.
