Description
A vintage French movie poster of ''Christine'', 1958, with Romy Schneider.
About the artist:
René Péron (March 11, 1904, Paris – April 29, 1972, Le Landin, France) was a prolific poster designer and book illustrator from the late 1920s through the 1950s.
Péron designed more than 2,000 cinema posters between 1930 and 1960, including for major films such as "La Belle Marinière" (1932), "King Kong" (1933), "L'Eternel Retour" (1943), "Jour de fête" (1947), "French Cancan" (1954), "And God Created Woman" (1956) and "Spartacus" (1960).
He created posters that hardly go unnoticed, both in color palette and composition. Incredibly balanced scenes amaze these works of art for their bright colors, sharp contrasts, and bold titles. Peron's color selection explores the nuances of red, orange, pink, often creating differences between complementary colors. For example, blue stands out next to orange, yellow lights up, enhancing the overall picture.
Even the style of the titles is made to attract attention: he works on typefaces, often dynamic, other times geometric, or powerfully contoured. Peron's posters are a mixture of realistic faces, more abstract elements, and flashy texts. A superb balance of reality and poetry.
In the 1950s, he also designed numerous novel covers (especially for crime novels) and illustrations for club editions. After 1960, he devoted himself to illustrating children's books.
