Cyrk Nine Lions 1976 Polish B1 Circus Poster, Tadeusz Jodlowski

About the Item

The beautiful original Polish cyrk (circus) poster featuring 9 lion faces (well actually 8 lions and one lady!). Wonderfully edgy, pop design. The ‘Cyrk” circus poster in Poland appeared for the first time in 1962 when the ZPR (Zjednoczone Przedsiębiorstwa Rozrywkowe, or United Entertainment Enterprises), the state agency that oversaw the circus, commissioned leading artists from the Polish School of Posters to develop a modern approach to the circus poster. The ZPR wanted a new look for the circus poster to complement the circus’ efforts to upgrade its image. Not intended to advertise specific performances, they, rather, celebrated the essence of the circus through rich artistic expression with designs typically featuring clever metaphors, bold colours and humour. Heavy in symbolism, provocative and highly original the designs remain contemporary to this day and continue to gain appreciation. This poster is from in 1976,  and is sized 26 1/2 x 38 1/2 inches and in Rolled, Near Mint/ Mint Condition. It will be sent rolled (unframed).
