ELIO XIMENES (1855-1926)
Lago di Como.
Whether the viewer is smitten with the placid beauty of the scenery or the signorina who herself seems to have fallen head-over-heels with everything her eyes can drink in, this Ximenes tourist poster for Lago de Como placidly lures the Italian traveler to the area set entirely within the northern Lombardy region. Como, of all the Italian lakes, offers the most diverse array of destinations: smiling villages, tiny ports, villas in exotic gardens succeeding one another along the banks of this Pre-Alpine body of water. A soothing window into a world of unharried pleasures.
