During WWII he put his artistic skills to use designing propaganda posters for the war effort. After the war, he established a career in cinema advertising, and established his name designing posters for epic films such as The King and I (1956), One Million Years B.C.

Celebrate a true piece of cinematic history with this exceptionally rare 1962 pre-Oscars British quad poster for Lawrence of Arabia — a remarkable early issue released in the UK before the film’s sweeping success at the Academy Awards. This scarce pre-awards quad captures the scale, intrigue and majesty of David Lean’s epic long before it became enshrined as one of the greatest films ever made. Striking artwork by Georges Kerfyser, whose dramatic, stylised illustration dominates the design. Kerfyser’s powerful rendering of the film’s enigmatic central figure, set against sweeping desert action and rich, atmospheric tones, gives the piece a distinctive visual authority. Georges Kerfyser was a French-born illustrator and commercial artist active during the mid-20th century, known for his expressive, painterly style. Working extensively in Europe, he produced artwork for film posters, advertising campaigns and publishing houses. Kerfyser’s dynamic compositions and bold use of colour made his work instantly recognisable, and his contribution to this early Lawrence of Arabia poster...
