Description
Italian Costume Design Artwork 1958 Don Carlos? ROH - Luchino Visconti Interest
** If you are looking at this listing on your phone or tablet, please click on 'see full description' to see the listing in total as well as all the images I have provided **
A vintage ink and pencil costume design for a Nobleman, together with textiles attached. As you can see from the images provided, the costume designer was obviously Italian as it has wording in Italian. This is not signed and so I do not know 100% who the costume designer is however there is 'Gentilousmo' and 'Fountainbleau' written in ink and I know from research that a nobleman and 'Fountainbleau' is in the Opera 'Don Carlos'. There was an Italian costume designer, Luchino Visconti (1906 - 1976) who designed costumes for the Royal Opera House performance in 1958....this could be from there as it certainly looks older than some of the costume designs I have had recently. This is one of three I have on Ebay at present, the others have English translations. Please see all photos and make up your own mind, I have provided my opinion only from research, thank you.
Measurements: 13.25inches wide x 18.75inches high.
Condition: Overall fair - as a working drawing this has pin holes, paper stuck to it and marks / creases all over whilst still having an acetate front sleeve - please ensure you review this photos, thank you.

I request that payment for the purchased item is made within 24 hours unless otherwise agreed (prior to bidding).
Kindly note that if no payment is received after 48 hours (unless otherwise arranged) I will file an unpaid claim through Ebay.
I normally post within five working days of receiving cleared payment, should you wish for a quicker dispatch please let me know.
Shipping
I pack using only new boxes, new bubble and new packing peanuts and as a result there is an additional small charge for this included within my P & P costs quoted within the listing (this ranges from £0.50 - £3.50) per parcel). The charge is not me making further profit, simply ensuring that the goods I sell have the best chance possible of arriving with you in the same condition.
