Step into the bold visual world of authorial graphic design with this striking Polish poster for the iconic film Midnight Cowboy, directed by John Schlesinger and winner of three Academy Awards in 1969.

Released in Poland as "Nocny Kowboj", this powerful visual—created by the renowned Polish poster artist Waldemar Świerzy—transcends promotional material to become a true work of art, representative of the golden age of the Polish Poster School.

Świerzy, one of the 20th century’s most celebrated graphic designers, crafted this minimalist yet expressive composition: the massive silhouette of a cowboy hat, glowing red lips, and dramatic vertical typography. It captures themes of isolation, identity, and the gritty atmosphere at the heart of the film—while distilling the essence of Dustin Hoffman’s unforgettable character.

Printed in 1973, this poster is a prime example of the artistic freedom and cultural depth that defined Polish cinema posters during this era, where illustrators reimagined film narratives with originality and visual daring.

Why this poster is exceptional:

  • Created by Waldemar Świerzy, a globally acclaimed graphic artist

  • Visually arresting design, emblematic of the “Polish Poster School”

  • Authentic vintage piece in A1 format (approx. 82 x 58 cm)

  • Extremely rare on the market in this version and condition

  • Ideal for collectors, designers, film lovers, and Eastern European art enthusiasts
