The limited re-edition poster 'Student Beggar' is an official collector’s release of Józef Mroszczak’s renowned work, originally designed in 1961. The B1 format (99.8 × 69 cm) allows the collage-inspired composition to take full effect: a warm ochre background sets off sharp black and deep blue graphic planes. At the center, a man in a bicorne hat is constructed from bold, matte contours and geometric details, with his face defined by a mix of grayscale collage and expressive hand-cut edges. The title 'student' is written in cursive and stands in quiet opposition to the block lettering of 'żebrak' in a saturated blue. The print is produced in an edition of 500 on high-grade, matte offset paper, emphasizing color density and crisp detail. This composition carries the voice of Polish modernism from the 1960s while retaining the theatrical undertones of operetta. The spatiality of the collage counters literal representation, introducing a subtle tension between tradition and experiment. Enlarged forms and concentrated textures evoke respect for the classics but with a nod to avant-garde sensibility—the narrative extends beyond the surface of paper. Rich color fields and dynamic typography create an ambiance that is both expressive and balanced: the poster signals the impact of visual gesture and the gravitas of its dramatic subject. It excels as a solo statement
