Description

Rare specimen of a bar glass plate. It is signed by the F. Du Chene firm, a French Company that opened a branch in Milan -at the end of the XIXth Century- with the aim to supply with advertising signs for public transport of the City. This specimen was originally or, more probably was subsequently framed to protect the work against the sharp edges of glass and to be able to manage it more easily. The company logo design is painted on the back, on a blue frosted glass base. We also have a second version, but without the central drawing. If anyone has other specimens, we would be interested to see them in order to compare them.
