NELLO BENINI (1895-?) TERNI. Circa 1930s. 39 1/4x24 1/2 inches, 99 1/4x62 cm. Alterocca, Terni. Condition B: tears and repaired tears at edges; creases, abrasions and staining in margins and image; punch holes and reinforcement stickers in upper corners; tape on verso. Paper. Terni's steelworks made the city into a poster child for Italy's industrial production, with such products as ship hulls, naval canons and rifles produced there. This Machine Age travel poster capitalizes on that reputation by emphasing the industrial might of the region, depicting a turbine driven by Terni's Cascata delle Marmore waterfall.
