Giornale del Mattino: Aleardo Terzi (1870 - 1943) is considered one of the masters of the Italian poster (ref. Bolaffi, p. 215), with an eclectic style that could shift from straightforward commercial sensibility to symbolically influenced allegory. For this advertisement for Bologna's morning newspaper, he depicts a haunting allegory of "news" rising to meet the new day; she lifts off the veil of night to break the morning news as the sun rises.
