Art & Hue
All dozen Ealing Comedies Posters pop art prints by Art & Hue reimagining the posters of classic Ealing Comedies – for yourself or as a gift for a superfan of the comedy film series. Art & Hue had the pleasure of diving into Studiocanal’s extensive library of production and publicity photography from Ealing Studios to create this group of exclusive pop art prints in homage to Ealing.
To mark 75 years of Ealing Comedies, Art & Hue presents 12 stylish pop art prints inspired by Ealing’s classic comedy films. These reimagined & remixed poster designs pay homage to the wit & charm of the era, celebrating the iconic productions that have left an indelible mark on film history & British comedy.
Produced under the stewardship of Michael Balcon at Ealing Studios, “Passport to Pimlico” was one of the most popular films of 1949 and, along with “Whisky Galore!”, “Kind Hearts & Coronets” & “A Run for Your Money”, all released in the same year within the space of a few months, firmly established the Ealing Comedies.
The studios had released comedies previously, such as “Hue & Cry” in 1947 and “Another Shore” in 1948, but Ealing’s prolific output in 1949 was a boom period for the studios, with critical and commercial success.
Individually, each print captures the unique essence of its respective Ealing comedy; collectively, they weave a tapestry of cinematic history & societal changes in post-war Britain, reminding us of the remarkable humour and warmth that made the Ealing comedies timeless classics.

An official collaboration with Studiocanal, these prints are part of the Ealing Comedies collection of stylish pop art inspired by the classic British comedy films made at Ealing Studios, featuring Art & Hue’s signature halftone style (halftone is an age-old technique that uses dots to make up the printed image, similar to newspapers or comic books).
