Description from the seller
Original Italian Poster – La Febbre dell'Oro (The Gold Rush) – Charlie Chaplin – Artist Ferrini
Offered here is an original vintage Italian theatrical poster for "La Febbre dell'Oro" (The Gold Rush), Charles Chaplin's immortal silent-film masterpiece. This striking Italian design features a bold pop-art style portrait of Chaplin's famous "Little Tramp" character, rendered in vivid blue tones against a bright turquoise background, with a silhouetted figure superimposed over the image. The artwork is credited to renowned Italian poster artist Ferrini.
Originally released in 1925, The Gold Rush remains one of the most beloved films in cinema history and is frequently cited as one of the greatest silent movies ever made. Chaplin wrote, directed, produced, starred in, and later composed the score for this unforgettable comedy-drama set during the Klondike Gold Rush.
The film contains some of the most iconic scenes ever committed to film, including Chaplin's famous "dancing rolls" sequence and the legendary scene where the starving prospectors cook and eat a shoe. Chaplin himself reportedly stated that this was the film by which he wished to be remembered.
This Italian poster was produced for a later theatrical re-release and features exceptional graphic design typical of Italian cinema advertising from the 1960s–1970s period.
