The framed cover of the magazine 'TY i JA' from early 1961 is a mature example of Polish graphic modernism, designed by Roman Cieślewicz, a leading figure of the Polish School of Posters. The composition is built on contrasts: the warm, slightly yellowed off-white of vintage paper sets the background for dynamic black calligraphic forms, while the magazine’s title features a playful color palette—'TY' in black and red, 'JA' in green and lavender, and the 'i' in black. The asymmetric layout is complemented by two vignetted portraits: a woman’s head in purple and a man’s head in green, both rendered in a classic engraving style and seamlessly integrated into the collage-like design. The print is presented in a simple, modern black frame with a white mat (30 × 40 cm). The surface is matte, free of gloss. The overall condition is very good: only minor natural yellowing and faint signs of age are visible, typical of authentic 1960s paper, with no damage or restoration.This cover channels the energy of 1960s Polish graphic design: bold typography, freedom of form, and a keen sense for visual contrast. The sweeping black calligraphy divides the space, suggesting that 'TY' ('You') and 'JA' ('Me') are distinct worlds meeting on a shared page. The yellowed paper quietly narrates decades of history, echoing the magazine’s role in shaping a modern cultural sensibility in a time of creative openness. The portrait vignettes evoke the spirit of period illustration, adding a touch of personal, intimate storytelling.Such a framed poster serves as a striking accent in a living room or home
