About the Artist
Created by an anonymous artist, this 1969 design reflects a pivotal era when concert posters and countercultural graphics were often the work of small studios or collectives rather than well-known individuals. These creators worked rapidly to produce imagery that would capture attention and convey a message instantly on city streets and in shop windows.
This spirit is embodied in the present piece, a vintage music festival poster that fuses symbol, typography, and color into an enduring artifact of its time. For those interested in classic promotional graphics, our advertising posters collection offers more vintage print styles to explore.
The Artwork
This poster was created for the legendary 1969 music festival in White Lake, New York, an event that became a symbol of peace, unity, and the transformative power of music. The festival’s visual identity, spread through posters like this, helped define the era’s ideals and left a lasting mark on popular culture.
The central motif—a white dove perched on a guitar—was chosen to encapsulate the festival’s message of harmony and hope. As a Woodstock-themed poster, it stands as both a historical document and a decorative piece that continues to resonate with music lovers and collectors alike.
Style & Characteristics
The design is dominated by a crisp white dove sitting atop a stylized guitar, rendered in a bold, instantly recognizable silhouette. Surrounding the emblem, the poster features striking festival lettering and tightly organized blocks of text, ensuring clarity and visual impact.
The palette is led by vivid red, contrasted with pure white and accented by touches of yellow, blue, and green. Flat color fields and sharp edges reflect the print techniques of the late 1960s, giving the poster a lively, optimistic mood that captures the energy of the era.
In Interior Design
This poster makes a dynamic focal point in living rooms, music spaces, studios, or hallways, especially where cultural history and bold graphics are appreciated. It pairs well with mid-century modern furnishings, industrial accents, or eclectic bohemian decor, and can anchor a gallery wall of music memorabilia.
Its energetic colors shine against neutral backgrounds like white, cream, or natural wood. For a cohesive look, explore our music wall art and consider a sleek option from our frames collection to highlight the poster’s striking design.
