Original Šípková Růženka Film Poster | Czechoslovak Release, 1971 | Josef Vyleťal | Sleeping Beauty
Original Czechoslovak film poster for Šípková Růženka (Sleeping Beauty), 1971, designed by Josef Vyleťal. This offset lithograph exemplifies the poetic and surreal visual language of Czech poster design, featuring a stylized composition in which a garland of red roses forms a ribbon-like shape above a delicately rendered townscape, with a small bird perched at its apex against a soft blue sky. Created for a fairy-tale adaptation of the Grimm Brothers’ story, the poster reflects the distinctive mid-century Czechoslovak approach to children’s cinema graphics—favoring metaphor and painterly abstraction over literal depiction. Printed for domestic distribution; printer not identified. Preserved in very good condition; not linen-backed. Artist fully attributed.
