The original circus poster 'Bear with Drum,' designed by Gustaw Majewski in 1975, is a representative example of the Polish School of Poster Art, reflecting the mid-century modern aesthetic of the 1970s. The central figure is a stylized, anthropomorphic bear in a circus uniform and hat—simplified shapes, geometric forms, and vivid, contrasting colors (ochre, blue, yellow, magenta, green, purple, white, black) evoke the era’s decorative flair. A large yellow drum with a wavy 'CYRK' inscription and dynamic typography emphasizes the poster's performative and rhythmic qualities. The deep black background intensifies the bright colors and draws the viewer’s attention to the main character. The poster was offset-printed in the standard B1 format (approx. 68 × 98 cm); its surface is smooth and matte, with no gloss or texture. It is preserved in excellent condition, with no visible damage, discoloration, or signs of restoration, making it an authentic collectible example.This graphic echoes the tone of 1970s Poland: a poster world that was colorful, witty, and gently poetic. The bear with the drum, with exaggerated eyes and geometric details,
