Italian Posters
Passion, Nostalgia, Art, Fetishism, Collecting Mania and History....in two words: Movie Posters. Those who really love cinema cannot fail to be fascinated by vintage movie posters, in which amazing artists succeeded in the not so easy task of fixing an emotion on paper. The following galleries serve as an example of this now vanished Art and, at the same time, provide an overview of my personal collection. In fact, I would like to proudly point out that every single poster on the site has been photographed by me and belongs to my collection. Enjoy!
