Il 20. secolo. La conquista delle regioni aeree
Italian edition of Albert Robida's illustrated future-fiction satire, issued in 1885 for a general reading public that bought serialized comic novels about aviation and the coming century. The pen drawings run to crowded caricature heads, captioned comic vignettes of kneeling pleaders and toppling dinner scenes, and a dreaming figure ringed by stage sprites; useful for grotesque profiles, densely stacked faces, and small narrative spot art.
