About the Item

Original poster from the XIX Olympiad Mexico 1968, printed on paper and created within the iconic graphic universe developed for the Mexico 68 Olympic Games. The composition presents a vibrant floral interpretation rendered through a modernist and psychedelic visual language, where the use of color, geometry, and repetitive patterns embodies the spirit of a design identity now regarded as one of the most important achievements in twentieth-century graphic design. The piece retains the original printed inscription “IMPRESO POR MIGUEL GALAS S.A.” along the lower margin, referencing the historic Mexican printing house celebrated for its exceptional technical quality and closely associated with the production of significant cultural and editorial works of the period. The paper displays a naturally aged tonality and subtle chromatic variations consistent with its age, characteristics that further affirm its authenticity and passage through time. Rather than detracting from the work, this patina contributes historical depth and reinforces the poster’s original character. Beyond its decorative appeal, this poster represents an important fragment of Mexico’s visual history, making it especially compelling for collectors of graphic design, Mexican modernism, and period Olympic memorabilia.
