Description from the seller
Original French manifesto dedicated to Club du Cirque, a historic cultural association founded in France in 1946 to protect and promote circus arts.
The composition depicts the famous clown Charlie Rivel in a graphic representation that is strongly stylized, characterized by vivid colors and a visual language typical of French graphic design from the second half of the 20th century. The letters forming the word Cirque integrate into the composition, creating a dynamic and instantly recognizable effect.
Poster printed by Imprimerie Rivier in Villeurbanne (Lyon), a historic French printer specialized in posters and promotional material.
