About the Item

Il Tetiteatro is an original Rare Book illustrated by Alberto Martini (Oderzo, 1876 – Milan, 1954) in 1924. Original Edition. Published by Bottega di Poesia, Milan. 602 numbered copies. Format: in Folio. The dimensions and the weight are indicative. The book includes 99 pages and 44 black and white illustrations + 7 color illustrations tipped in. Good conditions. Alberto Martini (Oderzo, 1876 - Milan, 1954); he was an Italian draftsman, painter, engraver and illustrator, forerunner of the surrealist movement. Visiting the house-museum in his hometown, one gets the impression of being in front of a painter, but above all a "French" illustrator. He was a notable portrait painter. He reached the pinnacle of success with the theater on the water and was back in Paris in the twenties until 1934. Certain lithographs were very modern, above all The Kiss from 1915.

Ballet und Pantomime "Scherzo I", plate #4.
By Walter Schnackenberg
Located in Palm Beach, FL
Walter Schnackenberg’s style changed several times during his long and successful career. Having studied in Munich, the artist traveled often to Paris where he fell under the spell of the Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s colorful and sensuous posters depicting theatrical and decadent subjects. Schnackenberg became a regular contributor of similar compositions to the German magazines Jugend and Simplicissimus before devoting himself to the design of stage scenery and costumes. In the artist’s theatrical work, his mastery of form, ornamentation, and Orientalism became increasingly evident. He excelled at combining fluid Art Nouveau outlines, with spiky Expressionist passages, and the postures and patterns of the mysterious East. In his later years, Schnackenberg explored the unconscious, using surreal subject matter and paler colors that plainly portrayed dreams and visions, some imbued with political connotations. His drawings, illustrations, folio prints, and posters are highly sought today for their exceedingly imaginative qualities, enchanting subject matter, and arresting use of color.
