The title "Carta Gastronomica de Bel Paese" is prominently displayed in an ornate cartouche of fruits and vegetables surrounding a compass rose.&nbsp; This is example is particularly scarce in that it contains “Chianti I.L. Ruffino” Pontassieve - Firenze at the bottom of the map. Vsevolode Nicouline (Vsevolod Petrovič Nikulin, (1890 - 1968) was a Russian-born Italian artist, illustrator, and set designer. Born in Mykolaiv, Russian Empire (now Ukraine) to an Orthodox priest, he attended the Odessa Art College (now the Grekov Odessa Art School), where he studied with Italian sculptors Luigi Iorini and Giuseppe Mormone, before enrolling at the Imperial Academy of Arts in 1917. The Russian Revolution derailed Nicouline's studies, and he became an officer in the White Russian forces. As the Bolsheviks gained the upper hand, he fled to Constantinople and then to Genoa. His works included the fine pictorial maps of Italy and its regions first published as Imago Ialiae in 1941. Please note: This item is excluded from complimentary shipping.

Hollywood was a perfect subject for the airline age, combining travel, entertainment, celebrity and the glamour of California. The result is a poster that feels both promotional and cinematic. David Klein's work for TWA is among the most admired travel advertising of the post-war era. His designs are known for strong graphic composition, vivid color and a distinctive ability to turn place names into powerful visual experiences. This Hollywood design is a superb example of his atmospheric, destination-led style.

An evocative and scarce multi-signed image from McLaren’s most dominant era, the 1988 season seeing the MP4/4 secure 15 victories from 16 races. Signed material combining Senna with both his teammate Berger and team principal Dennis is uncommon, particularly in large-format presentation pieces of this nature, and such items remain highly sought after by collectors of historic motor racing memorabilia.
