AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Galerie ARTCO Revival presents this iconic Italian advertising poster dedicated to Carpano Punt e Mes, signed Armando Testa, a major figure in Italian graphic advertising.

Selected for its visual strength, vintage charm, and memory resonance, this poster embodies the universe of Italian vermouth, the aperitif, and bar culture. Carpano is a historic house founded in Turin in 1786, while Punt e Mes has become one of its most emblematic names, famed for its balance between sweetness and bitterness.

In line with Galerie ARTCO Revival's approach, this poster has been digitally restored to preserve its original spirit while improving legibility, colors, flat areas, and decorative impact. The image retains its vintage soul, but regains a quality suitable for contemporary art printing.

Printed in collaboration with Atelier Montmartre on premium art paper, this restored poster is aimed at collectors, fans of Italian design, enthusiasts of vintage advertising posters, and lovers of images that stand the test of time.

A strong, nostalgic and elegant decorative piece, ideal for a contemporary interior, an office, a private collection, or a bar space.

BIO Galerie ARTCO Revival

Iconic posters restored & art prints

Galerie ARTCO develops a dedicated division for the digital restoration of old, vintage, and iconic posters, followed by their printing as high-end art prints.

The idea is simple: to bring life back to images that marked our collective memory. Mythical advertisements, film posters, motorsport, pop culture, great figures, gastronomy, fashion, travel, sports or artistic events… each poster is selected for its visual strength, nostalgic power, and ability to evoke a period, an atmosphere, or a memory.

The collection focuses mainly on vintage posters from the great decades of the 20th century, while allowing some contemporaries already embedded in the collective imagination. The goal is not merely to reproduce an image, but to give it a second life, with respect, rigour, and sensitivity.

Each visual undergoes careful digital restoration: cleaning defects, recoloring, improving flat areas, correcting the marks of time, optimizing readability, and preserving the original spirit. The aim is to keep the charm, patina, and soul of the poster, while providing it with a visual quality suited to current art prints.

The prints are produced in collaboration with Atelier Montmartre, on premium art paper chosen for its rendering, firmness, and finish quality.

Exclusively offered at auction on Catawiki, these restored posters appeal to vintage lovers, collectors, graphic design enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to bring a fragment of visual memory home, restored with care and printed with gallery quality.

Galerie ARTCO Revival is about bringing the past into the light: cult posters, restored with rigor, to become striking, nostalgic, and desirable decorative pieces.
