De Circus van de Duivel
1926
Eric Rohman’s 1926 poster for 'The Devil’s Circus' (Djävulens Cirkus) is a dizzying example of Art Deco graphic design, where sharp, triangular spotlights cut through the darkness like knives. Acrobats in green swimsuits dive fearlessly through the beams while lions roar from colorful pedestals below, capturing the high-wire danger of the film's plot. Created for the Swedish release of this Benjamin Christensen-directed melodrama starring Norma Shearer, the poster transforms a simple movie ad into a dynamic visual spectacle that screams 'thrill'.
