Description from the seller
Original 1970s manifesto dedicated to the historic Circus Sarrasani, a renowned international circus entity active in Europe during the 20th century.
Poster with strong visual impact characterized by a spectacular composition with tiger and lion in heraldic position 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, high-contrast colors,
- dramatic animal iconography,
- theatrical and spectacular atmosphere.
Extremely decorative and refined manifesto for:
- circus collectibles,
- industrial and vintage interior design,
- venues, pubs and creative studios,
- theatrical and retro furnishings,
- enthusiasts of traveling shows and memorabilia of classic circuses.
The deep black background and the strong chromatic presence of red, yellow and blue make the poster particularly scenographic even in contemporary environments.
