Description:

This is an original, authentic poster created for the 1972 Munich Olympic Games, designed by renowned French artist Charles Lapicque.

The artwork features a dynamic and colorful composition, combining elements of mythology and athleticism. Rendered in bold outlines and vibrant shades of green, yellow, and red, the design includes figures that evoke ancient Greek and Roman influences—one of the central themes of Lapicque’s work. A majestic rearing horse, a helmeted warrior, and a charioteer in motion suggest the energy and competitive spirit of the Olympic Games. Other elements, such as classical architecture and a running figure, further reinforce the connection between history, culture, and sports.

At the bottom of the poster, the official Olympic rings and the emblem of the 1972 Munich Games are prominently displayed, alongside the text “Olympische Spiele München 1972.”

This piece is part of a prestigious Olympic art series, where 28 internationally recognized artists were invited to contribute their vision to celebrate the fusion of art and sports. The poster remains in good overall condition, showing light signs of age-related wear, including pinholes in each corner, tiny tears around the pinholes, and a small rip in the upper left section. Despite these minor imperfections, it remains a valuable and historically significant collectible for sports and art enthusiasts alike.
