Fornasetti, the Italian decorative effect on printed ceramic household objects
While their plates are showcased at the Altemps Palazzo Museum in Rome, the original Fornasetti label multiplies prints on a wide array of ceramics for the house.
If you have never programmed a weekend in the Eternal City, now is the time to discover the exhibition « Citazioni Pratiche », showcasing the talent of Piero Fornasetti, until the 6th of May 2018, and treat yourself to ceramic objects from his new collections. The decorator, who created a series of plates, inspiring himself from the lovely face of soprano Lina Cavalieri, has now designed it in many shapes.
Printed ceramics, Made in Italy
The art of trompe-l'œil is the signature trait of this atypical artist, who pinpointed his genius idea while leafing through a French decoration magazine. Since, he affirmed his style by instilling a good dose of humour into a line of daily objects. These are manufactured with the greatest care, in delicate materials and with motifs that make reference to Surrealism.
