Item Overview

Description

ALBERTO BIANCHI (1882-1969)
Fiat/Ardita.
Considering the time period during which this poster was produced, its nationalistic fervor can be somewhat unsettling. However, you have to take into consideration that Mussolini's autocratic policies forced Fiat to reconfigure its plans to become an international presence and to concentrate instead on the domestic market. To that end, the speedy lass in this 4-sheet Bianchi poster makes a 'Bold' statement as she whizzes past in her Fiat (a Balilla one has to imagine), urging the viewer to do as she has done to 'get out and conquer' the road.
