"New Shell Lubricating Oils" is an iconic poster designed by the American-born artist and graphic designer Edward McKnight Kauffer in 1937. Kauffer, who was a significant figure in the development of modern graphic design, created this work during his prolific period in the United Kingdom, where he had moved in 1914. The poster was commissioned by Shell-Mex and BP Ltd, a company known for its innovative and influential advertising campaigns during the early 20th century.

Kauffer's design for "New Shell Lubricating Oils" exemplifies his mastery in combining elements of modernism, cubism, and surrealism, which he adeptly used to create visually striking and effective commercial art. The poster features a dynamic composition with bold colors and geometric shapes, which were hallmarks of Kauffer's style. His ability to distill complex ideas into simple, yet powerful visual forms made his work stand out in the crowded field of advertising.

The poster not only served a commercial purpose but also reflected the broader cultural and artistic movements of the time. Kauffer's work was influenced by his interactions with avant-garde artists and his exposure to European modernist trends. This influence is evident in the abstract and stylized forms that characterize the "New Shell Lubricating Oils" poster.

Kauffer's contribution to graphic design and advertising was significant, and his work for Shell is often cited as a prime example of how commercial art can achieve a high level of aesthetic and artistic quality. "New Shell Lubricating Oils" remains a celebrated piece in the history of graphic design, illustrating the seamless integration of art and commerce.
