Description«A poster needs to be eye catching, and the job of the poster designer is to attract attention to its subject. This one for an exhibition on the history of theatre buildings from antiquity to the present (1955) draws us to the subject in a somewhat abstract way. But we finally understand these slightly crazed eyeballs are in fact representations of Greek amphitheatres!»Jasper Morrison
