About the Item

Wisdom is an original drawing in pen on paper, realized in 1920 ca. by Filiberto Scarpelli (Naples, 1870 - Rome, 1933). Published on Italian magazine "la guerra dell’asino". Included a Passepartout: 50 x 35 cm. In good conditions, except for folding of the paper and some signs of the time (minor stains). A beautiful and interesting satirical drawing, showing on the blackboard the perfect political program made of pure socialist populism. L'Asino, born in 1892, became a newspaper clearly against Mussolini's dictatorship, and for this reason was forced to suspend the publications in the spring of 1925, after a long series of threats, persecutions, and interventions of the fascist gangs in the newsroom. Filippo Scarpelli (Naples, 1870 - Rome, 1933) Italian caricaturist and writer, Filippo Scarpelli wrote books for boys and actively collaborated with the Sunday newspaper. As a draftsman, he collaborated with various humorous newspapers, especially the Travaso delle Idee, which he directed. He also signed the name of the founder of Travaso, Tito Livio Cianchettini. He also worked as a cartoonist for Il Balilla, Il Popolo d'Italia, Numero, Il Pasquino, the Giornalino della domenica, and Il Corriere dei Piccoli. He participated in the Futurist movement. He died in Rome in 1933 with a gunshot.
