Crossroads: Birth of the Blues

This Art Deco–inspired poster depicts the iconic Crossroads marker where Highways 61 and 49 meet in the heart of the Mississippi Delta. Three hollow-body blues guitars rise through the composition beneath the highway shields, referencing the legendary intersection long associated with the birth of the Blues.

Clean geometric shapes, Delta-inspired colors, and dramatic angled shadows give the design the feel of a vintage travel poster while highlighting the distinctive form of the Clarksdale crossroads sign. The result is a modern graphic tribute to one of the most storied landmarks in American music history.
