About This Item
Bergamo: Insituto Italiano D'Arti Grafiche. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine. Montedoro, Marco. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. N.d. Circa 1920s. 148, [1] pp. With 9 tipped-in color plates featuring Arlecchino, Brighella, etc. Interconnected tales inspired by and relating to the Commedia dell'Arte. The plates are of vivid color and full of panache. Nominally juvenalia, these illustrations and accompanying text are even more likely to ingratiate themselves to adults, especially those intrigued by masques and the Venetian Carnavale. Interspersed with the Italian is Venetian and Bergamasco dialect. Montedoro, the illustrator, is an unjustly forgotten or neglected artist (to our knowledge). Other than light soilage on the white cloth, this is a fine copy. Con 9 tavole in colore rappresentanti Arlecchino, Brighella, e altre caratteri della commedia dell'arte. Le tavole sono pieno di colore brilliante e lo stile. Benche ufficialemente per i bambini, queste illustrazioni e il testo accompagnante piaciono gli adulti perfino piu probabilemente, specialemente la gente affascinata dalle maschere e la carnavale veneziana. Mescolato nel testo e pezzi del dialetto veneziano e bergamasco. Montedoro e un illustratore sfortunatamente adesso dimenticato. Inoltre un po di sporchezza leggera sulla copertina, questa copia e veramente ottima!
