EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating poster takes us back to Venice in 1936, where a dog show was being advertised with great enthusiasm. Created by the talented Italian artist Astolfo De Maria, this colourful lithograph measures an impressive 101x70 cm and is now part of a private collection. The poster showcases De Maria's exceptional skills as an illustrator, capturing the attention of passersby with its striking design. The lively scene features a charming canine standing proudly on its hind legs, surrounded by bold Italian text that adds to the overall allure of the artwork. As we gaze at this vintage print, we are transported to a time when advertising relied heavily on eye-catching visuals and clever communication techniques. The use of bright colours and intricate details highlights De Maria's mastery of lithography, making this piece not only an advertisement but also a work of art. Venice's picturesque canals serve as the backdrop for this delightful image, adding a touch of Venetian charm to the composition. It is evident that De Maria aimed to entertain viewers while promoting the upcoming dog show in his hometown. With its timeless appeal and classic style, this stunning poster continues to captivate audiences even today. Its presence reminds us of how art has always played an essential role in both commercial promotion and cultural expression throughout history.
