Posters
are widely employed to add luster to the interior décor of homes, hospitals,
offices, schools and colleges. Today, there is such a wide variety to choose
from when considering perking up the bare walls of one’s office or home with
something beautiful. Generally, however, posters are conveniently grouped into the following
categories:
Fine
Art Prints: These are
posters that are prints of art works by renowned or contemporary artists.
Examples include prints of the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci or Self
Portrait with Monkey by the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. In most cases, the
original works are available in museums or with private collectors.
Movie
Posters: Contain depictions
of well known movie characters and the movies in which they appeared.
Music
Posters: Featuring pictures
of musical artists, bands, pop stars or classical music divas.
Sports
Posters: They feature sport
teams, famous sport stars and sporting legends.
Vintage
Posters: Generally designed
and first printed in the 1890s to 1960s, most vintage posters available today
are prints of the originals. Most of the originals left are sought after by
collectors.
Motivational
Posters: They contain
pictures and themes that are intended to inspire, stimulate and motivate.
Children’s
Posters: Designed with
children in mind and often featuring characters well known to children. They are
often very colorful and attractive to the eyes.
