THE DRAUGHTSMAN'S CONTRACT (1982) POSTER, US

SIGNED BY PETER GREENAWAY, DIRECTOR

Art by Mark Sparacio

41 x 27 in. (104 x 69 cm)

This film was written and directed by Peter Greenaway, and stars Anthony Higgins, Janet Suzman and Anne-Louise Lambert. It tells the story of a young artist who is commissioned to do some drawings of the estate of wealthy family whilst the husband is away. Twelve drawings are commissioned, and whilst undertaking these, the artist discovers more than the beautiful surroundings. This poster was signed by Peter Greenaway at a film screening. It is rare for anyone to have an original film poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs and video/dvd sleeves. It is unusual to have the film's poster with you when you try to obtain signatures.
