This poster is an original contemporary/vintage European art poster. It was created by an artist of the world-renowned Polish School of Posters - recognized as the best in contemporary poster art comparable to La Belle Époque (1890s) French posters.
It was printed in Poland under the auspices of the Polish national government. During the golden age of the Polish School of Posters [1945 (the end of WWII) through 1989 (the fall of Communism)], the Communist government financially supported and encouraged poster art. Combining the art of painting with the succinctness of the poster, the posters of the Polish School of Posters became the primary art form of the nation - powerful and creative works of art that are meant to be enjoyed, pondered and interpreted - and attained worldwide fame.
In Europe and Asia, original contemporary/vintage Polish art posters have long been recognized, exhibited, bought and collected as art. In collections throughout the world including the Museum of Modern Art (NYC) & the Library of Congress (Washington, DC), the Polish School of Posters changed contemporary poster design forever and set the standards others follow.
