Work description

"When you set out on your journey to Ithaca, pray that the road is long."

Kavafis's Ithaca is the poem of the journey as the true destination.
This is its Opera Poster. Just for you — from €120.


Turkish Blue.

Cyan and turquoise of the Mediterranean.
The color of the sea Odysseus crossed —
and of every worthwhile departure.

Why gift it (or gift it to yourself).

Ithaca is for those who understand
that the value is not in arriving
but in the journey taken to get there.

An Opera Poster is not forgotten.
It doesn't end up in a drawer. It doesn't fade.
It's hung, and every time you look at it
that journey begins again.

How it is made
01
Typographic Design
The text is composed and balanced by hand, seeking the right rhythm between negative and positive space.
02
Handmade
Letterpress inks on 390gsm Fedrigoni paper. Each pass is unique: the pressure leaves its mark on the back too.
03
Signature and Hallmarking
Each artwork is signed by the artist and embossed with the UCN dry seal.
It's worth knowing

We are not a print shop. We are an artisan workshop in Naples where each work is born from a discussion about the song, the artist's history, and the meaning of those words for those who have experienced them.

Every piece that leaves our workshop is unique. Not for marketing purposes, but by nature: typography is not a perfectly reproducible process. The mark remains.
