Lucien Joseph Fontanarosa Prints and Multiples
French, 1912-1975
Lucien Joseph Fontanarosa was born on December 19, 1912, in Paris. He studied at the École Estienne in Paris, a lithographic drawing studio and later at the École Nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He was highly regarded throughout his entire career by French artists and the French State alike. The SNCF, the French National Rail system, commissioned multiple posters to advertise and celebrate the connected locations on their routes after the Second World War. Savoie created by Fontanarosa showcases an awe-inspiring view of snowy mountaintops of the Alps and was created in this regard. Fontanarosa passed away on April 27, 1975, in Paris.
