The magazine drew on Poland's extraordinary postwar poster tradition, commissioning artists like Jan Lenica, one of the founders of the Polish School of Poster, to produce work that was genuinely ambitious by any international standard. Period originals from this publication sit at the intersection of Cold War politics and some of the most inventive graphic design of the 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"polish-magazine-1","title":"Poland Magazine by Jan Lenica","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis remarkable wraparound cover from Poland Illustrated Magazine showcases the striking visual language that made the Polish School of Posters internationally celebrated.
