Ravello is a historic village perched above Italy’s Amalfi Coast, dating back to the 12th century. One of its famous landmarks is Villa Rufolo, built by a wealthy merchant family in the 1200s. The villa’s medieval architecture blends Greek, Arab, and Moorish influences due to Ravello’s location along Mediterranean trade routes. Villa Rufolo was first mentioned in 1353 in Boccaccio’s Decameron.

Ravello became a popular retreat for artists, musicians, and writers in the late 1800s during the Grand Tour era. Famous visitors included Robert Wagner, who composed part of his Parsifal opera here, as well as Virginia Woolf, D.H. Lawrence, Winston Churchill, and Greta Garbo. Today, Ravello still attracts celebrities seeking privacy on the Amalfi Coast.

The Italian National Tourist Board (ENIT), established in 1919, created posters like this one to promote travel within Italy. This particular poster, featuring Villa Rufolo, was designed by Publio Morbiducci (1889-1963), a noted artist known for his sculptures and designs for Italian currency and the 1936 Olympics.

Ravello – Villa Rufolo, Publio Morbiducci, 1933

Original 1933 Italian travel poster featuring Villa Rufolo in Ravello, designed by Publio Morbiducci and issued by the Italian National Tourist Board (ENIT). Ravello, a medieval village set high above the Amalfi Coast, is renowned for its panoramic views and historic architecture. Villa Rufolo, built in the 13th century by a wealthy merchant family, blends Arab, Moorish, and classical influences reflecting Ravello’s position on Mediterranean trade routes. The villa is famously mentioned in Boccaccio’s Decameron (1353).

From the late 19th century, Ravello became a celebrated retreat for artists, writers, and musicians during the era of the Grand Tour. Richard Wagner composed parts of Parsifal here, and later visitors included Virginia Woolf, D.H. Lawrence, Winston Churchill, and Greta Garbo.

Publio Morbiducci (1889–1963), best known as a sculptor and designer, also created striking poster art for ENIT. His works combined classical imagery with modernist design. This example, printed by Calcocromia Novarra, survives in nice condition with light folds and has strong historical significance as part of Italy’s interwar tourism campaign.

Cosulich Line – Klodic 1933 – Timetable Poster, – Rare Original Italian Lithograph
$ 550
COSULICH LINE
Artist: Klodic
Date: 1933

Original 1933 poster for the Cosulich Line, designed by Klodic and printed at Calcocromia, Novara. The poster served as a timetable of departures from Napoli and Palermo for routes to North and South America, issued before the company’s merger into Italia Flotte Riunite later in the 1930s.

The design includes depictions of both the Saturnia and Vulcania, two of the Cosulich Line’s principal transatlantic passenger ships of the period. An Italian tax stamp appears on the sheet, confirming official publication and circulation. The date 15 February 1933 is shown along with the Fascist-era date notation Anno XI, indicating the eleventh year of the Fascist calendar in use at the time.

This is a rare surviving example of an original Cosulich Line timetable poster from the early 1930s. Printed in Italy using lithography, it has been professionally mounted on linen and remains in excellent condition.

The Cosulich Line, founded in Trieste in 1903 by the Cosulich family, operated passenger and freight routes across the Adriatic and to the Americas. The company’s ships, including the Saturnia and Vulcania, were among the most advanced Italian liners of their time. In 1937, the Cosulich Line was absorbed into the newly consolidated Italia Flotte Riunite, forming part of Italy’s unified national shipping service.
