(Italian, 1913-1988) FORNASETTI MILANO, c. 1950 La Citta Riflettente four-panel folding screen, with Libreria reverse Lithographic transfer-print over hand-lacquered wood Each panel: 79 x 19 1/2 inches Property from the Collection of Elizabeth D. Remmert, St. Louis, Missouri This Fornasetti screen is in very good condition. With a lot of his work, especially screens of this size there can be damage to the lithographic transfer very easily. This work shows very little sign of age and use. There is one spot to one of the center panels where it looks like cleaning residue was sprayed by accident. It appears as a 2 inch milky white translucent mark and should be able to be cleaned off. The hinges are all in great working shape as well as the wheels. There is no real damage to the lithographic transfer to speak of.
