Banca Italiana di Sconto (ca. 1920). Fine/Very Fine on Linen. French Half Grande (31.25" X 47") Jean Carlu Artwork.
This glorious poster depicts a woman gracefully balancing a basket of fruit on her head, set against the backdrop of a serene rural landscape. Promoting the Banca Italiana di Sconto, it urges citizens to subscribe to a loan in order to support the nation's return to prosperity. It brilliantly captures the charm of its era. Unrestored on linen, some signs of age remain such as light edge wear, some creases and handling wear, a few slight tears, a couple of pinpoint stains, subtle dust shadow along the bottom border, and light toning.
