Lake Placid 1980 Olympics

Lake Placid 1980 Olympics

John Gallucci1980

Blue and purple mountains stack up in watercolour layers above the Olympic rings. John Gallucci (1918 to 2009) painted the Adirondack scene for the XIII Olympic Winter Games at Lake Placid, held from 13 to 24 February 1980. The Winter Olympic Organizing Committee commissioned the design in 1979, and Gallucci was one of the artists chosen to paint posters for the Games.

He had been a signature member of the American Watercolor Society since 1953, and he taught art in the Lake Placid area.

On the poster

Snow-covered Adirondack mountains fall away in layers of blue and purple watercolour. The Olympic rings sit below the mountains.

Our restoration process

History has wrinkles. We have standards.

A century or two can be unkind to a poster. Folds, tears, stains, fading and the occasional indignity of terrible storage.

Each print begins with historic artwork, carefully restored using the latest digital tools and restoration techniques. Damage is addressed, colours refined and details recovered, while respecting the original composition, lettering and character.

The result? All the charm of the original, without having to live with its unfortunate accidents.

Paper and print details

Good art deserves good paper.

Each poster is printed to order using professional giclée printing techniques and archival pigment inks on 200gsm enhanced matte fine art paper.

The natural white, smooth matte finish reduces glare while bringing out rich colours and crisp detail. The inks are designed for excellent lightfastness, helping the artwork retain its colour for years to come.
