Description from the seller
Original advertising manifesto dedicated to Cirque Achille Zavatta, one of Europe’s most famous circuses, starring the legendary clown Achille Zavatta (1915–1993).
The image, with strong visual impact, depicts Zavatta with his iconic makeup, red nose, and the characteristic gesture directed toward the spectator, transforming the poster into an effective example of European circus graphic design from the mid to late 20th century.
The composition is dominated by a lively blue background and the large yellow headline, typical elements of advertising aimed at urban posting. The illustrative quality and the intense expressiveness of the face contribute to making this poster particularly sought after by collectors of circus memorabilia and vintage advertising graphics.
The poster was printed by the typography Impro-Vision – Ambert (France), as noted along the margin.
Dimensions: 106 × 78 cm.
Conditions
Poster in generally good condition.
Shows:
original editorial creases from posting;
slight signs of use and conservation;
some light warping and small distortions aligned with the folds;
minimal surface marks and a small abrasion along a side margin;
back with faint handwritten annotations typical of use for distribution and posting.
The print retains very vivid colors and an excellent visual impact.
The photographs constitute an integral part of the description.
Shipping
The poster will be shipped carefully rolled in a rigid tube, with tracked and insured shipping, to ensure maximum protection during transport.
