Baccara
1936
Eric Rohman's 1936 Swedish poster for the film Baccara is a masterclass in Art Deco drama, selling the high-stakes allure of the casino world. A fiery red backdrop sets the stage for the ethereal, oversized face of star Marcelle Chantal, who looms like a glamorous ghost over two sharply dressed men in tuxedos. One man clutches a seven of diamonds while the other casually holds a cigarette, hinting at a story of gambling, romance, and danger. It's a bold, graphic snapshot of 1930s cinema style that makes you want to place a bet just by looking at it.
