"Italian Aerial Lines" is a study in speed. Red seaplanes streak across a field of blue, their bright hulls and wings set off sharply against the cool background, with lines of motion trailing behind them. The English-language title shows the poster was meant for travelers from abroad, inviting them to see Italy from the air. The bold, simplified forms and strong diagonals belong to the modern design style of the period between the two world wars, when Italian graphic art was fascinated by aircraft, motion and the machine age.
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.
