Offering in EXCELLENT NEW CONDITION...
a very rare high quality reproduction of a 1903 ART NOUVEAU poster
advertising the MONTECATINI TERME thermal spas
in Tuscany, Italy
by GIUSEPPE CHIATTONE
Swiss visual artist (1863-1954)
Montecatini Terme is a town in Tuscany, Italy, known for the art nouveau Parco delle Terme spa complex. The largest and most famous of Tuscany’s spa towns, Montecatini Terme has been revered for its curative waters since at least the 16th century, when the first baths were built here. Two centuries later, neighborhood royalty began to take note after the opening of the town’s first grand spas, putting Montecatini Terme firmly on the aristocracy's radar. Beyond the array of fine spas featuring treatments old and new, today’s visitors come for the shopping, dining and sporting offerings, as well.
Large. Dimensions are approximately 26 3/4 inches by 39 inches. Not a recent copy or a computer reproduction... I purchased this from an art gallery in Beverly Hills, California around 1980. I've owned this gorgeous poster for 45 years but never got around to framing it. Bold vibrant colors. No fading. Smooth surface. Crisp edges. Never hung. Never displayed. No tackholes. No rips. No tears. No creases. No tape. See pictures. Just some extremely minor edgewear and/or handling marks. Please inspect all pictures carefully. What you see is what you get. Has been carefully stored in a smoke-free and pet-free environment since I acquired it. PRICED TO SELL. READY TO FRAME.
