30 Amazing Posters Designed by Mario Borgoni in the Early 20th Century

Born 1869 in Pesaro, Italian painter, illustrator, graphic designer, fashion designer and advertiser Mario Borgoni moved to the Neapolitan city where he married his beloved Lilliana who bore him two children (Renato and Vittorio), and who he used as a model for many of his works.

Borgoni studied at the Royal Institute of Fine Arts, where he was a student of Ignazio Perricci. He dedicated himself as much to realistic and stage painting, often portraying women, as he did to protest posters.

Borgoni frequented the painter Domenico Morelli. He died in Naples in 1936. Here below is a set of amazing posters designed by Mario Borgoni in the early 20th century.
