A 1981 Roland Garros poster by Michel Dumas, this piece is an illustration of the 1981 French Open winner, Björn Borg, shown from behind in loose, sketch-like lines. The shaggy yellow hair and tricolour headband do most of the work, set against minimal space and hand-drawn typography. More about character and mood than action, it’s a light, human take on early 80s French poster design.
