About the Artwork
A violin and boxing gloves frame the stars
The Golden Boy 1939 poster by Eric Rohman sets William Holden and Barbara Stanwyck against teal and yellow. A line-drawn violinist appears to one side, and a boxer with raised gloves stands to the other. The black script title takes up the open space above the pair.
Artwork and design
The wide yellow curve sets off the dark hair and jacket at the center. The two smaller figures use different amounts of line and fill, making each easy to pick out at the edge. The sweep of the title follows the curve that separates yellow from teal.
About this design
The 1939 Columbia film adapts Clifford Odets’s play about a young violinist who turns to boxing. The Swedish artwork uses both pursuits to frame the film’s central relationship. Holden, Stanwyck and Adolphe Menjou are named together in the small white billing near the base.
Rooms and interiors
Display it in a music room, study or collection of classic sports and film prints. Teal and warm yellow work well with pale wood. Set it where the small violin and boxing gloves are easy to see alongside the large portraits and dark script.
