About this work

This poster is bright and busy. On the left, big letters spell "PROMS" in bold colors—purple, green, blue, and yellow. To the right, swirling ribbons mix red, orange, pink, and blue. Small black logos appear on the ribbons, and the bottom lists opera and ballet shows with dates. The poster advertises events at the Royal Opera House in 1986. The price for seats is £3, and it mentions 700 stalls on the promenade. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more posters like this.
