The view opens through a pointed Gothic arch onto the Umbrian valley below Assisi, all in cool blues, in this Italian travel poster. Framing the landscape from inside an old stone building is a fitting device for Assisi, the hill town of St. Francis, whose churches and walls look out over the plain toward Perugia. Italian tourism posters of the interwar years often used this kind of window or arch to draw the viewer into a place, as if standing in it already. The artist and date are not recorded here.

The bag is made from 10-ounce canvas of 80% recycled cotton and 20% cotton. The recycled fibers are collected from garment-cutting waste and then intertwined with cotton for added strength and durability. Self-fabric handles. Dimensions: 15.75" h x 15.25" w; approx. 240 cubic inches.

Note: Bags not intended for use by children 12 and under.
