A vintage piece of Roman travel history.

You're dressed for the evening and step out of the Excelsior onto Via Veneto, where Rome seems determined not to go to bed. Tables spill onto the sidewalk, conversations carry from cafés and restaurants, and there's always the possibility that the familiar face across the room belongs to an actor, artist, aristocrat or someone whose photograph will be in tomorrow's paper. 

Opened in 1906, the Hotel Excelsior became one of Rome's great luxury hotels and helped establish Via Veneto as an international gathering place. By the mid-20th century, the avenue had become synonymous with the celebrities, filmmakers, journalists and café society of La Dolce Vita — a glamorous Roman world in which the Excelsior occupied center stage.

This print is reproduced from a high-resolution scan of an original vintage luggage label, preserving the typography, color and subtle character of the original piece.

Available unframed or professionally framed in your choice of Black Premium Metal or Black Premium Oak.
