Festival du Cirque de Demain (1988)
Original French Circus Poster
Designed by Raymond Savignac — Printed by Éts Saint Martin, Asnières
Created by the celebrated French graphic artist Raymond Savignac (1907–2002), this whimsical poster announces the 11th Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain, held in Paris from January 20–27, 1988. The event—literally the “Circus of Tomorrow”—was founded to spotlight new generations of circus artists from around the world, combining innovation and traditional spectacle under the dome of the Cirque d’Hiver Bouglione.
Savignac’s design captures his unmistakable humor and clarity: a simple, colorful composition that conveys joy, movement, and the human element of performance. His ability to distill complex ideas into playful visual symbols made him one of the most beloved French poster artists of the 20th century, known for works for Air France, Perrier, Monsavon, and countless cultural events.
Printed in serigraphy by Établissements Saint Martin in Asnières, this is the original 1988 edition, professionally mounted on linen and preserved in excellent condition.

This beautiful original travel poster, “Visitez La Tunisie” (Visit Tunisia), was created by the artist Yahia to promote tourism to Tunisia during the postwar period. Printed in Paris by Rene Sicard, it features a warm and atmospheric Art Deco-inspired composition showing figures walking through a sunlit Tunisian town with traditional architecture and Mediterranean light.
Yahia’s artwork captures the romantic vision of North Africa as presented in mid-century French travel campaigns—combining painterly detail with refined graphic design. The result is a serene and inviting image that exemplifies the charm of 1950s French poster art.
The poster is currently not linen-backed. Professional museum-quality linen-backing can be provided upon request, with an estimated two-week turnaround before shipping.

An original lithographic cover from the French humor magazine Le Rire, issue no. 129, published on 14 April 1897. Titled Snobisme, the composition was designed by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec during one of the most productive periods of his career. Le Rire was among the leading illustrated satirical magazines of the Belle Époque and frequently featured original artwork by many of the era’s most important artists. Although issued as a magazine cover rather than as a separately published poster, examples have become increasingly desirable for their artistic quality, historical importance, and direct association with Toulouse-Lautrec’s celebrated graphic work.
