Gem of the Ocean Art a Real Gem

I haven't seen the play, but I am absolutely in love with the poster art for August Wilson's Gem of the Ocean, which is playing at the Guthrie Theater.

If anyone wants to score points with me, snag me a copy of one of these babies, and I'll be eternally grateful. (Maybe one of those big bus stop posters that are up around town. Yeah, that would be good.)


This is just about a perfect image, both conceptually and in terms of execution. The color is dynamic, the textures add dimension and character, and the gargantuan figure, hidden beneath the water, is just riveting.
