Franco Turcati - Caterina Caselli (1966)

Caterina Caselli (1966)

Caterina Caselli, an unforgettable voice of Italian song and the iconic “golden helmet,” is depicted in 1966 at the Turin Automobile Museum, in a moment suspended in time, just after triumph at the Sanremo Festival.
The image today takes on almost symbolic value: Caterina is aboard the Ferrari Dino Prototype, an unaware protagonist of a coincidence destined to become history. It was precisely on that occasion that Enzo Ferrari met Gianni Agnelli, initiating a dialogue that would lay the foundations for a future collaboration. An intuition that would take shape in 1969 with the Fiat Dino Spider and Coupé project.
A central figure in Italian music, Caterina Caselli has marked an era not only as an interpreter of extraordinary sensitivity but also, in the following years, as a refined and forward-thinking record producer, capable of discovering and enhancing new talents.

Conservation of works advice
For optimal conservation of your Fine Art print:
Our Fine Art prints deserve special care to preserve their quality over time, avoiding yellowing or fading.
It is recommended to handle them always with clean, dry cotton gloves.
If framing, use a mat to avoid direct contact between the print and the glass.
Store the prints away from direct light. Even the materials of storage boxes are crucial: lignin-containing or acidic-pH cardboard can damage the print substrate and promote yellowing.
