Product description
🎭 Prinzessin von Burgund (Yvonne) – c. 1970 – Original A1 Poster by F+R Grindler | Tübinger Zimmertheater, Germany Polish anti‑fairy tale in West German minimalist theatre graphics | Domberger silkscreen | Silkscreen | 84.1 × 59.4 cm | Germany 🎬 Introduction An expansive midnight‑blue field is pierced by a single, arresting motif: a vertical fish spine tapering to a textured tail, drawn in chalky white. The image reads like an X‑ray or fossil impression—an elegant, macabre prelude to Witold Gombrowicz’s anti‑fairy tale Yvonne, Princess of Burgundy. F+R Grindler balance the icon with crisp sans‑serif titling (“Yvonne … Prinzessin von Burgund”), production credits, and a rectilinear hierarchy characteristic of their work for the Tübinger Zimmertheater. Printed by the Domberger workshop, the screenprint carries luminous ink density and razor edges that reward close viewing. ✨ Why It Matters This poster distills the late‑1960s/early‑1970s West German theatre idiom—bold single symbol, minimal palette, and disciplined typography—into a pitch‑perfect object. The skeletal fish, beautiful yet unsettling, anticipates the play’s corrosive absurdism and the heroine’s disruptive presence. Bilingual titling nods to Gombrowicz’s Polish origin while situating a German production, creating crossover appeal for collectors of Polish literature, postwar German theatre, and high‑end screenprinting. Produced by F+R Grindler and realized by Domberger Siebdruck, it exemplifies concept‑driven modernist graphics executed with exemplary craft. As an original A1 tied to a specific venue and production team, it is an inherently ephemeral artifact that seldom survives in such strong condition. 📐 Poster Details - Year: circa 1970 - Country: Germany (West Germany) - Size: 84.1 × 59.4 cm - Format: DIN A1 - Studio / Publisher: Tübinger Zimmertheater; printed by Domberger Siebdruck - Designer: F+R Grindler 🔎 Condition Very good vintage condition with sharp corners and vibrant color; no creases, tape marks, pinholes, or tears.
