Tempera on paper was wrapped in a wrapping of tissue paper yellowed from the home of writer and screenwriter Massimo Franciosa. And in pencil included, regardless of our doubts, the letters written in Illustration by Gino Severini. Written apparently coeval with the card. Basta.
Thus was born one of the most entertaining art lovers. Going to the sources, looking for feedback and confirmation. A path that, until now, has not brought us anywhere. For the vast production of Severini, but also for style diversity adopted in the '40s and '50s. Not disdaining the kind of illustration for magazines and companies.
Maybe a collection of postcards, or magazines of the era, can help. To give a paternity. Or deny it forever.
