AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
“Scena Illustrata” was an authoritative Italian biweekly magazine, founded in Florence in 1885 by Pilade Pollazzi. The 1901 collection is a bound volume containing the year’s publications, which feature magnificent color illustrated covers and interiors in the Art Nouveau style, offering a rich insight into the culture, art, and society of the period.
Style and Covers: The issues showcase typical covers with Art Nouveau decorations, brought to life by reliefs, ornamental borders, and illustrations by the period’s leading artists.
Topics Covered: The magazine ranged from literature to art, including sports, theater, current events, and detailed reports on Italy and Europe.
Illustrated Contributors: Within its pages you can find contributions from important literary figures, including Capuana, Carducci, Croce, De Amicis, Fogazzaro, Verga, and Zola.
"The cover is damaged, but the inner pages are in excellent condition. There are only about four pages slightly damaged in total. Additionally, the first image on the magazine’s cover shows a signature in the upper right corner, which could be the original by Mataloni. I’ve taken only a few shots, but I can add more that you may wish to see."
