Carigiet was a multi-talented artist. In addition to working within all the fields of graphic arts he also designed sets and costumes for theatrical productions as well painting houses. The personal, unique style and high quality of his work assigns him to the rarified group of poster designers who can considered as fine-art artists. As a case in point this travel poster evokes the feeling of a decorative mural, the graceful image of a woman and a deer a stream is cleverly split in the middle by the water itself.
