Information
tempera on paper applied to cardboard
15 x 16,5 cm
Original cover made by Cambellotti for Ettore Romagnoli's theater criticism magazine "In Platea," published by Zanichelli in 1924. Cambellotti initially embraced Art Nouveau, embracing its distinctively original and pioneering aspects expressed in the ideas of William Morris, before moving on to Futurism. Like Morris, he saw art as having a social, global, moralistic, and pedagogical purpose, aimed at making it accessible to all. Like Morris, he became a shining example of the artist-craftsman par excellence. Considered one of the most brilliant exponents of Art Nouveau in Italy, Cambellotti was a painter, sculptor, ceramist, set designer, designer, architect, and printmaker, but it was perhaps in illustration that all the artistic approaches he explored throughout his career converged. Signed.
