Original artwork description:

Drawing made in colored ink on cardboard as a tribute to the Giubbe Rosse of Florence (a historic café founded in 1897 that in the history of Italian culture is remembered as a laboratory of thought, projects and passions) and to the great Italian writer and poet Amalia Guglielminetti, a free woman who was not inclined to the customs imposed by men at the time. She, conquering the public with her verses that overturned the social canons of the time, was in that Cafè Giubbe Rosse in 1913, when it seemed that from there the intellectual revolution that would have turned the whole world upside down would have started. Fixed headquarters of the Futurist movement and cradle of the most important cultural magazines of the time, it represents a tangible testimony of the atmosphere and intellectual fervor that animated Florence during the twentieth century, and therefore constitutes a strong identity value.
