Cinzano on Canvas by Leonetto Cappiello

This piece of artwork is nearly an exact replica of the original even including raised brush strokes. Meticulously reproduced on art paper or canvas, this collectible work makes a bold statement. The remarkable intensity of color and texture is achieved with the Giclee process, beautifully capturing the assorted artistic styles and defining periods of the early advertising age. This art work takes you on a journey to a delightful time and place while displaying humor or superb graphic design. Cinzano is a beautiful reproduction of a painting by Leonetto Cappiello. This will make an exquisite addition to any rec room. The print features a turn-of-the-20th-century advertisement poster for Cinzano wine. Canvas material; professionally mounted on a lightweight frame; glass and frame not included. Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original artwork. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Leonetto Cappiello (b. 1875 in Livorno, Italy; d. 1942 in Cannes, France) was an Italian poster art designer who lived in Paris. He is now often called the father of modern advertising. Cappiello had no formal training in art. The first exhibition of his work was in 1892, when a painting was displayed at the municipal museum in Florence. Cappiello started his career as a caricaturist illustrating in journals like Le Rire, Le Cri de Paris, Le Sourire, Assiette au Beurre, La Baionnette, Femina, and others. His first album of caricatures, Lanterna Magica, was made in 1896. In 1898, he moved to Paris, and his caricatures were published in Le Rire for the first time. Between 1901 and 1914, he created several hundred posters in a style that revolutionized the art of poster design. Cappiello redesigned the fin-de-siecle pictures into images more relevant to the

Smithsonian Behind the Scenes: Contemporary Art Conservation

March 9th, 2010

Latex, chocolate, soap, and video game software are just a few of the non-traditional materials that have inspired contemporary artists. While they embrace the modern, synthetic and technologically advanced world in which we live, some of materials present significant conservation problems for museum conservators. Gwynne Ryan, a conservator at the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden discusses the challenges museums face with this issue: Should we keep art locked away to make it last? Or let it be experienced as it was intended while accelerating its natural degradation?
