Image title
curious Christmas postcard, from the 1914-1918 war: a French child in his bed dreams that a Father Christmas aboard an eagle-shaped plane throws balloons on his bed that look like bombs. This nightmarish representation is evidently a denunciating allegory of the murderous perfidy of the German enemy. The author of this work is Domenico Mastroianni (1876-1962), inventor of the “sculptochromy”: he created a huge quantity of postcards that were ephemera sculptures, made of earth to be modeled, photographed and then destroyed.
