A wonderful 1947 French cinema poster by Jean Jacquelin for Jacques Tati's celebrated film Jour de Fête.

Featuring a bustling village fair filled with colourful characters, musicians, a carousel horse and Tati's unmistakable postman, the design captures the humour and charm of postwar French cinema.

Created two years before the film's official release in 1949, this large-format poster is a particularly interesting piece of French cinema history. The lively illustration and brilliant use of colour make it a real standout.
