Savignac - SIRPA-Gendarmerie - SDG Rosny - Raymond...

Rare original poster from the French drug-prevention campaign created by Raymond Savignac, one of the most famous French poster designers of the 20th century. In his instantly recognizable style, Savignac stages a gendarme seizing a person carrying a suitcase marked 'DRUGS', humorously and effectively illustrating the anti-drug message. The simple drawing, bold colours and the bright yellow background constitute the artist's iconic visual signature. This work is part of institutional posters produced in the 1990s for public-awareness campaigns.
