Angelen met vuile gezichten
1939
Before Hollywood blockbusters had massive marketing budgets, artists like Eric Rohman created visual masterpieces like this Swedish poster for the 1938 classic *Angels with Dirty Faces*. Titled 'Panik i Gangstervärlden' (Panic in the Gangster World), it uses a striking color palette to tell the story: James Cagney's tough guy glows in aggressive red, while Pat O'Brien's priest is rendered in cool, calm blue. It’s a brilliant piece of 1930s graphic design that promises high drama, featuring a young Humphrey Bogart and the famous 'Dead End Kids' in a bold, Art Deco style.
