A beautiful poster from 1905 that came into my atelier from Italian collector. It was designed by Leopoldo Metlicovitz (1868-1944), who is considered one of the fathers of modern Italian posters. The poster was created for the Bicycle and Automobile Exhibition in Milan. During the exhibition, a celebration of the tenth anniversary of the Italian Automobile Club and an inter-club competition of touring cars took place. My job was to clean the poster, glue it back together, and then retouch the lines that had been created when the poster was folded.
