DESIGNER UNKNOWN TUTTO IL MONDO IN EPOCA. 1954. 55x39 1/2 inches, 139 3/4x100 1/4 cm. Mondadori, Verona. Condition B+: restoration and minor restored losses along vertical and horizontal folds. Using the clever conceit of replacing a camera's flash with a globe, the artist illustrates the idea that the Italian magazine, Epoca, is able to capture the world for its readership. The apparatus itself is an iconic Speed Graphic, renowned as one of the most famous press cameras. This image presages Fellini's Dolce Vita (1960) with its paparazzi chasing sensational images to feed the popular magazines.
