Martin Jacoby-Boy
Born in Berlin in 1883, died in Buenos Aires in 1963. He was a painter, commercial artist, advertising artist, writer and costume designer. After training to become a skilled woodworker, Jacoby-Boy studied at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris. From 1912 to 1926, he designed Bravour (1912, D. Stempel AG), Verzierte Bravour (1913, D. Stempel AG) and Jacobea (1928, Berthold). Beginning in 1919, he spent a decade working as a Production Designer for several German film companies, including May Films and Fritz Lang's UfA. In 1933, he emigrated to the Netherlands and then to the USA, and finally to Argentina, where he died in 1963. In 2009, Nick Curtis designed Bravado NF based on Bravour. |
