Leonetto CAPPIELLO (1875-1942) Great Charity Festival, 1924 Mixed media. Mounted on canvas. Signed lower left. (Tears at edges. Water stains). 159.5 x 119 cm Bibliography : Rennert, p. 254, no. 404. For this type of official commission for an event about which there's not much to say, form takes precedence over substance... Cappiello, with his radiant young woman on a background strewn with flowers, fulfills his mission perfectly! All the more so as the printed poster is cluttered with the obligatory typographical references.
