Chwast’s poster introduces American audiences to the British television series based on Agatha Christie’s crime fiction about the dapper Belgian detective Hercule Poirot and set in the 1930s. In this poster, promoting the first season (it aired on ITV in the UK in 1989) of 13, Chwast appropriately defines the composition with the attenuated and flattened lines of the Art Deco style of that decade.
