As time goes by. L'uomo che disegnava sogni

Professionally known as Nano, Silvano Campeggi illustrated the dreams of Italians after the war and up to the 1960s: he is responsible for the film posters of Gone with the Wind, Casablanca, Ben Hur and thousands of other films. Born in Florence in 1923, he has spanned a century: what for most of us are black and white images - the carriages under Palazzo Vecchio, the liberation of Florence, the arrival of American stars in Rome in the period of Hollywood sul Tevere -, are vivid and colourful memories for him, just like the drawings he continues to make while whistling songs and thinking back to that time when Marilyn asked him: "Maestro, should I take my clothes off?".
