Mads Berg is a Danish illustrator (born 1975, Odense) known for blending vintage graphics and Art Deco style with modern illustration. His works often evoke nostalgia but with clean lines and simplified, elegant compositions.
The print “Paris, Roland Garros, 1983 [Yannick Noah]” is his recreation of a moment from the 1983 French Open. It features Yannick Noah in his decisive final win, capturing both the dynamism of the game and his charismatic presence (particularly his dreadlocks and athletic posture). It’s not a contemporary poster from 1983, but a later artwork celebrating that historic moment
Noah was the first Frenchman to win the men’s singles tournament at Roland Garros since Marcel Bernard in 1946. And as of now, he remains the last French male player to win a Grand Slam singles title.
Also, notable: his win in 1983 was with a wooden racquet—one of the last at that level in Grand Slam singles
