OX

Original British 30 inch x 40 inch Quad Poster for the 1992 Sven Nykvist Drama THE OX starring Stellen Skarsgard, Max Von Sydow, Ewa Froling, Erland Josephson and Lennart Hjulstrom.

Set in rural southern Sweden during the catastrophic crop failures and famine of the 1860s, Nykvist’s restrained and expressive debut film as a director tells of a family’s struggle to survive. The moral crisis that ensues is encapsulated in the figure of the ox: the only source for food and yet the only means for the survival of their landlord’s farm.

The poster is in fine unfolded (rolled) condition
