Description
This poster is part of a collection of 100 posters designed by Ettore Vitale for the Italian Socialist Party (PSI) between 1973 and 1991. The posters promote a range of events and campaigns using the colours of the Italian flag- red, white, and green, along with motifs of roses, rainbows, and stars. This poster is double the size of the rest of the posters and perhaps was intended to be a front cover of some sort. It is a large white poster with a red banner at the top. The poster reads "L'immagine socialista / Centomnifesti / Disegnati da Ettore Vitale per la direzione del Partito Socialista Italiano" English:"The Socialist Image / 100 posters / Designed by Ettore Vitale at the direction of the Italian Socialist Party". An illustration of a red carnation sits underneath the text.
