The text presents, for the first time in an organic way, the works carried out by Xanti Shawinsky
for commissions from Trieste between the first months of 1934 and 1935. The artist
in this period works for the Studio Boggeri in Milan, the most innovative and updated in
the country, which entrusts him with the tasks examined on these pages ranging from the
creation of sketches for covers and posters to the study and design of company logos and
complex mechanical realizations. The clients of the Firm are on this occasion: the Lloyd
Triestino Press Office and Illy Caffè.
