{"product_id":"swimming-national-championship","title":"National Swimming Championship, Valencia","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis striking 1957 poster was created for Spain’s National Swimming Championships, held at the iconic “Las Arenas” pool in Valencia. Designed by Autoli Candela (signed and dated upper left), the artwork reflects the bold, modernist aesthetic that swept through mid-century Europe, pairing clean geometry with vivid, abstracted forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA stylized swimmer, clad in a yellow suit and tri-color swim cap, emerges from an angular white spotlight, evoking both motion and focus. The dynamic symmetry and flattened perspective recall elements of Bauhaus and Constructivist design, while the palette, a bold mix of black, ochre, and sky blue, keeps the composition fresh and athletic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe event celebrated the Bodas de Oro (Golden Anniversary) of Spanish competitive swimming, with official timing by Longines, a nod to precision and prestige. Printed by Lit. S. Dura – Valencia, this is not just a piece of sports memorabilia but a brilliant example of postwar European graphic design pushing into new territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35.0\" x 20.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Artist\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autoli Candela\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Condition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
