Franco Turcati - Lucio Dalla, 1966 (28)

Lucio Dalla, 1966 (28)

Lucio Dalla, one of the greatest and most unforgettable Italian singer-songwriters, is depicted in a rare and evocative shot from 1966, at the famous Music Hall - Lutrario (Le Roi) in Turin. In this vintage image, still young but already charismatic, Dalla appears in a scene of spontaneous lightness: he delights three unknown little girls by mimicking the sound of a guitar with a simple broom, transforming a humble object into a instrument of fantasy and music. The moment was captured during a photo shoot curated by Franco Turcati, who managed to capture the artist’s playful and generous soul.

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