Description from the seller
Original 1970s manifesto dedicated to the historic Circus Sarrasani, a renowned international circus active in Europe throughout the 20th century.
A visually striking poster featuring a spectacular composition with a tiger and a lion in heraldic positions around the globe, accompanied by the famous slogan:
The most popular circus in the world.
The graphic aesthetics are typical of the great European circus posters of the Seventies:
- monumental typography,
- intense and high-contrast colors,
- scenographic animal iconography,
- theatrical and spectacular atmosphere.
An extremely decorative and refined manifesto for:
- circus collectors,
- industrial and vintage interior design,
- venues, pubs and creative studios,
- theatrical and retro furnishings,
- enthusiasts of traveling shows and memorabilia of the classic circus.
The deep black background and the strong presence of red, yellow and blue make the poster particularly dramatic even in contemporary settings.
