Grande Quinzaine Internationale de Lawn-Tennis, c. 1932 by A.M. Cassandre

This poster by A.M. Cassandre promotes the "Grande Quinzaine Internationale de Lawn-Tennis," held at the Stade Roland Garros in Paris, likely in the early 1930s. Cassandre’s bold, modernist design captures the energy of the tennis tournament with a large, glowing tennis ball suspended in front of a stark, geometric court. The abstract figure of a player in motion, silhouetted against a gradient red-orange background, emphasises the sport's dynamism and elegance. The typography, a hallmark of Cassandre’s work, is striking and structured, complementing the design's clean and futuristic aesthetic.

The event itself refers to what is now known as the French Open, a premier tennis tournament hosted annually at Roland Garros. Cassandre, an iconic Art Deco graphic designer, is renowned for revolutionising poster design by blending fine art and commercial advertising. His works frequently employed bold shapes and innovative uses of perspective. This piece reflects the increasing popularity of tennis during the interwar period when it was becoming a fashionable and international sport.

We've carefully remastered this print to make it available for you to enjoy. Our restoration process is detailed and precise but, because this artwork was never created digitally and no original digital file exists, some slight imperfections may remain when viewed up close, including some slightly blurred edges. To preserve its quality, we only offer it in sizes up to A2. Please do check the final product photo carefully and ensure you're happy before purchasing.
