Depero Fortunato - Originale Bergamo Litografia 1938

Original lithograph depicting Bergamo by Fortunato Depero and published within the famous volume Le Cento Città (NO reproductions, NO copies) Size: 29 x 27 cm The work is from 1938 and is part of the historic series of the Hundred Italian Cities conceived by Depero, in which the Futurist artist interprets urban centers through a strongly stylized, symbolic, and ultramodern graphic language. This 1938 lithograph by Fortunato Depero is a powerful example of Futurist graphics applied to the propaganda of the period. Splendid and vibrant original lithograph signed on the plate by Fortunato Depero, drawn from the famous publication “Le cento città di Depero,” one of the most fascinating and iconic editorial projects of Italian Futurism. Original period work, not a reproduction, with lithographic printing quality that fully renders the chromatic richness and the precision of the lines typical of historic editions. A highly decorative piece yet at the same time of great cultural value, ideal for collectors of Futurist graphics, Italian design, and 20th-century art. A rare market edition, particularly appreciated for its editorial provenance and for the signature of one of the leading figures of the Italian avant-garde. Note: This lithograph is one of the one hundred original plates from 1938 published in the volume Le Cento Città by Fortunato Depero and is to be considered an original editorial graphic work, originating from a dismembered book. ⸻ Artist: Fortunato Depero (1892–1960) Title: Bergamo Technique: color lithography Support: paper Period: first half of the 20th century Provenance: extracted from the volume Le Cento Città Condition: generally good condition, with normal signs of aging and editorial consultation (see images) Frame: not included
