THE GODFATHER / EL PADRINO (1972) FIRST CUBAN RELEASE SILKSCREEN POSTER, 1974
Art by Niko (Antonio Perez Gonzalez)
29½ x 19¾in. (75 x 50 cm)
This is considered one of the greatest films of the 20th century. It picked up seven Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Actor for Marlon Brando. Cuban posters have a very distinctive style. This rare piece is no exception, with its depiction of a cherub branding two machine guns! This must symbolise when a godfather bears witness to a child's christening. This very rare original release Cuban poster does not surface very often.
Formerly in the collection of Stanislas Choko. This piece was purchased in Cuba in the 1980s.
