THEinspired by the experimentation of a new indirect lighting system for the stage in 1907, Fortuny is considered a contemporary and timeless icon.

The basis was suggested by the camera tripod, with an adjustable central leg. For the lampshade, Fortuny inverted the typical lampshades of the time, making them flip-up. 

Mariano Fortuny was born in Granada, Spain, in 1871. His childhood was divided between Rome, where his father had a studio, and Capricio near Naples. After his father's early death in 1874, his family moved to Paris to live with his uncle. Father and grandfather are famous artists and Mariano inherits their talents, he also perfects himself in drawing, printing and chemistry.

Mariano studied painting until the age of 18, and it was then that he was introduced into Parisian society. A few years later the mother moved with the whole family to Venice. It was precisely in Venice that Mariano bought a building which he would transform into a large studio.
Mariano produces paintings, frescoes and at the same time he is a photographer and sculptor. In 1897, he was awarded a gold medal during the Munich International Festival of Art for his painting "The Flower Girls". His works were exhibited every year during the Venice Biennale, until his death (Venice - 1949).
