An authentic piece of Belgian mid-century publishing history.
This framed artwork contains an original page from the Belgian magazine Shocking, published in 1954. Titled "Melancholie", it features a striking black-and-white glamour photograph with a timeless film noir atmosphere and elegant 1950s typography.
Unlike modern reproductions, this is an original printed magazine page dating from the 1950s. The light folds, patina and age-related wear are part of its authenticity and vintage charm.
A wonderful decorative piece for a mancave, vintage-inspired interior, cocktail bar, home office or collector of retro ephemera.
