The colors reflect a lovely olive orchard in the background with the leaves of the olive trees, a blue sky, and white clouds floating above a mountain range. The woman in the main image pours a thin stream of olive oil onto a salad where the red color of the tomatoes is complimented by her red lips and the red print at the top and bottom of the poster. The message, “dall’ oliva pregiata” translates to the English as “from the prized olive” and "puro e squisito" at the bottom of the image translates to “pure and delicious.” The art is a joyful addition to a dining area or kitchen. This is an original vintage poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted on linen and professionally framed. Shown here as the standalone poster image and in its framed form. Includes Certificate of Authenticity from the gallery where it was purchased. See less
