The original circus poster "CYRK MAGICIAN WITH LEVITATING ASSISTANT" is a 1975 work by Miedza-Tomaszewski, representative of the Polish School of Poster Art. Printed in offset technique on smooth, matte-finish paper in B1 format (70 × 100 cm), the composition is set against a deep, saturated purple background that acts as a dramatic stage. The magician, depicted in exaggerated proportions, wears a black tuxedo, tall top hat, and a white mask with an orange nose; his oversized white gloves are a key visual element. The levitating assistant, in a delicate lace dress with vivid red hair, floats above a playful helper dressed in striped purple and turquoise. A stylized, cartoon-like golden-yellow key reinforces the magical motif, while the neon-blue "CYRK" typography in the upper left corner completes the design. The poster is in excellent, well-preserved, collector's condition—with no visible damage, discoloration, or restoration.This poster speaks in the voice of the 1970s, when Polish graphic design gained international acclaim. Its form and color engage in a dialogue with childlike imagination and surrealism—the magician in his mask seems to invite viewers into a world of illusion, where the levitating assistant and mischievous helper narrate a story of stage magic. The vibrant purple background and luminous typographic accents evoke the atmosphere of a circus performance, blurring the line between reality and fantasy.Within an interior, the poster may be paired with mid-century modern furniture, minimalist shelving, or raw concrete to highlight its graphic impact. It works well in a living room, creative studio, or office where it becomes a striking decorative focal point. It could be combined with other posters from the 1960s and 70s, geometric lamps, or collections of ceramics in contrasting hues for an eclectic, collector’s arrangement.
