Danmarks Akvarium Charlottenlund Seahorse

This is an original vintage poster promoting Danmarks Akvarium (Denmark’s Aquarium), located in Charlottenlund, a suburb just north of Copenhagen. The artwork features a striking and whimsical illustration of a seahorse rendered in shades of gray and black, set against a vibrant ocean-blue background. Beside it is a colorful sea anemone and a detailed conch shell, suggesting the rich marine biodiversity showcased at the aquarium.

The design is playful and eye-catching, likely aimed at sparking curiosity and interest in marine life among families and tourists. The use of bold colors and stylized forms is typical of mid-20th-century Scandinavian poster art.

The poster is in very good condition, with strong color preservation and only minor signs of age. Pinholes. Small tear at lower right margin. It’s a charming and rare piece of Danish graphic design history that captures the whimsical wonder of underwater exploration.
