Arduino Colato 1880–1954 Garda Seervndfahrten / Bonomini-Verona vintage poster
Caption Brief: "In this poster, the speeding Bonomini tour bus emerges from a tunnel like a bullet into a landscape of carefully graded colors and contrasting angles. It's a clever concept, one that holds the promise of both Italian alpine beauty and automotive excitement. The design was printed in several languages and was also used as the cover for a travel brochure published by Bonomini" (The Art Deco Poster, Crouse, p. 294). This is the German-language variant of the design.
