Description

La Dolce Vita (Cineriz, 1959). Italian 4 - Folio (55" X 78").
Few directors are as revered and imitated as Federico Fellini, a true artist whose style of film-making mixed dreams and gritty reality with a touching sense of humanity. After struggling financially with his early films, La Dolce Vita broke all box office records and garnered world-wide acclaim, marking this as one of many Fellini masterpieces. Filmed mainly at the Cinecitta studios, we follow star Anita Ekberg and Marcello Mastroianni as they escape the paparazzi through the streets of Rome. This professionally linen-backed poster shows only fold wear and pinpoint crossfold separations. It is an original release Italian 4-folio with a fantastic image of a dancing Ekberg and a world-weary Mastroianni by artist G. Olivetti. The last time we offered a copy of this poster two years ago, we sold a it for $20,315. Very Fine+ on Linen.
