A poster that dramatically heightened the excitement for the first Olympic Games in Asia.

詳細説明

One of the most iconic posters representing post-World War II Japan. It is often displayed alongside Posters No. 1 and No. 3. The image of athletes launching into their start, illuminated against the darkness, is filled with dynamism, making it a symbol of the entire Olympic Games.

The power of photography is a key feature of this poster, and it also served as a starting point for the widespread use of gravure-printed posters.
