Under The Hammer
In this feature, we share one of the rare, beautiful and extraordinary pieces to pass through our doors in The Thursday Auction since the last issue. This vibrant vintage poster from the 1950s caught our eye when it came up for auction at the start of Spring, promising warm weather and refreshing aperitivi in the months ahead. Campari’s pursuit of a sophisticated brand profile saw them approach the most sought-after designers of the 1920s and onwards to create their now iconic posters. The pre-mixed Campari Soda was first produced in 1932, sold in its recognisable single-serve bottle designed by Italian Futurist Fortunato Depero. The design was described as an “upside down goblet”, and we can see the parallel clearly in Mingozzi’s poster. Cin Cin! A ‘CAMPARI SODA MINGOZZI’ POSTER BY GIOVANNI MINGOZZI, 1950 Sold for $2,250
