| Additional Information: | Original vintage travel poster: Palermo, Sicily, designed by Italian artist Attilio Ravaglia, created around 1928. This rare Italian travel poster has been professionally linen backed and conservation mounted, with minor restoration to the outer borders completed during linen backing. The poster remains in very good condition and is ready for framing. Ravaglia’s composition highlights the magnificent Palermo Cathedral, one of Sicily’s most celebrated architectural landmarks. The artwork focuses on the historic portico designed by Domenico and Antonello Gagini, while the cathedral’s elaborate Gothic and Norman architectural elements rise dramatically in the background. In the foreground, lush fan palms frame the cathedral, creating a striking Mediterranean atmosphere that reflects the beauty and warm climate of Sicily. The rich colors and detailed architectural rendering make this poster a classic example of early 20th‑century Italian travel advertising. Palermo Cathedral, the cathedral church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Palermo, was originally constructed in 1158 and expanded over several centuries, blending Norman, Gothic, Baroque, and Neoclassical architectural styles.
