Anselmo Bucci (1887-1955): Italian painter, engraver, and writer, one of the initiators of the artistic movement of the twentieth century in Milan in 1922. The artwork represents the war scenery and preparation of the military with their cars, through quick and confident strokes. The artist took part in the Salon des Indépendants from 1910 on. He enlisted in the Volunteer Cyclist Battalion in 1915 and he became one of the most famous Italian war artists. He lives the war experience with a lot of the Futurism movement's exponents. In ''Pane e Luna'', his biography, he wrote: «Siamo fucilieri dell’ottavo plotone, a guardia notturna del Forte Trimelone e del lacustre Fronte. Tra noi buoni compagnoni sono i chiari Futuristi; altri oscuri per un oscuro compito». In the series ''Croquis du Front Italien'' that includes 50 drypoints, Bucci describes scenes of the Italian front in the First World War. During the war, in his battalion there were Marinetti, Boccioni and Sant'Elia. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
