Games of the XVII Olympiad
Roma - 25.VIII - 11.IX

Commemorate the return of the Olympics to Rome - the legendary games of Wilma Rudolph, Cassius Clay, Al Oerter, and Oscar Robertson! Published by the IOC at the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland, this poster features a reprint of the official poster for the 1960 Olympic Summer Games in Rome, Italy. Designed by legendary graphic artist Armando Testa, the winning entry from a pool of over 200 artists, this all-time classic incorporates the modern Olympic rings with several icons of ancient Rome - city founders Romulus and Remus suckling from the she-wolf, atop a classical column adorned with a victorious athlete being lauded by toga-clad admirers. Whether you or a family member competed in the games, you attended as a fan, are a citizen of the host country, or are simply a fan of the Olympic movement, this is a must for the wall of your home or office!
