Original 1958 Brussels Expo Poster by Leo Marfurt – “Exposición Universal”
Authentic vintage poster designed by Leo Marfurt for the 1958 Brussels World’s Fair (Expo 58) — one of the most iconic mid-century design events.
This striking composition captures the optimism of the Atomic Age with bold geometric shapes, a vibrant star motif, and modernist typography. Printed in Spanish (“Exposición Universal”), this rare edition was created to promote the fair internationally.
Marfurt, known for his powerful graphic language and avant-garde compositions, masterfully combined color and form to symbolize technological progress and global unity — themes central to Expo 58.
The poster is original, not a reproduction, and remains in excellent condition for its age. Presented in a black wooden frame with glass, ready to display.
