Alice in Wonderland by Mid-century Theatre
This mid-century theatre poster for Alice in Wonderland captures the graphic confidence of postwar stage design at its most inventive. Flat fields of bold colour, assured typography, and a dreamlike sense of visual play render Carroll's world in the visual vocabulary of 1940s–60s graphic arts. There is nothing tentative here — the design is declarative, the palette decisive, the composition built to stop a passerby in their tracks. It is a document of a moment when commercial graphic art and fine art were genuinely difficult to tell apart.
Printed as an archival fine art print in our Berlin studio, this poster delivers the sharp typographic lines and vivid flat colour areas of the original design with crisp clarity and precision.
