This illy Art Collection from 1998, designed by the renowned American artist Robert Rauschenberg, consists of a set of five porcelain espresso cups with matching saucers. The set stands out due to its unique cartographic design, in which each cup and saucer features detailed city maps in a vibrant, multicolored palette. Crafted from high-quality porcelain, the cups and saucers display a fascinating mix of colors, including pink, yellow, blue, and green, which accentuate the various city maps. Rauschenberg's distinctive signature is applied to the saucers in gold lettering, adding an extra layer of exclusivity to this collector's item. The set reflects the Pop Art style for which Rauschenberg is known and brings a piece of art history to the coffee table. The set is in excellent condition and shows no visible signs of use. The porcelain has retained its original luster, and the colors are just as bright as when it was produced in 1998. This espresso set is a perfect addition for collectors of the illy Art Collection or lovers of modern art. The cups come into their own beautifully in a display cabinet or as a striking detail during an intimate coffee moment in a contemporary or eclectic interior.
