As part of the exclusive 2022 series by Macondo Herald, this piece comes directly from our permanent archive and will never be reprinted, making it an irreplaceable, highly collectible artifact of modern Latin American print history.
Measuring 50 × 70 cm, this poster is a handcrafted linocut engraving meticulously carved and prepared by our master printers. It is printed on 150-gram Earth Pact paper, a sustainable substrate made from sugarcane fiber without the felling of trees or the use of harsh bleaching chemicals. This eco-friendly paper provides an organic, tactile surface that offers rich contrast, warm tones, and an authentic feel to the carved relief forms.
Brought to life on our historic 1870 Marinoni and 1890 Reliance presses, every print is pulled entirely by hand in our Cali workshop. The manual, century-old presswork creates subtle, natural variations in ink density and tonal depth across each impression, ensuring that your copy is an authentic, one-of-a-kind treasure bridging traditional Colombian craftsmanship with graphic literature.
