From his iconic posters for operas like Madama Butterfly and Suor Angelica by Giacomo Puccini to his captivating advertisements for Mele Fashion, this Italian genius left an indelible mark on the art scene. Intriguingly, Metlicovitz's talent extended beyond opera promotions. His artistic prowess shone through in diverse realms such as fashion and exhibitions. The Mele Department Store of Naples became synonymous with luxury thanks to Metlicovitz's stunning advertising campaigns showcasing high-fashion clothing for wealthy racegoers and a rich assortment of umbrellas fit for any discerning individual. Not only did he capture the essence of elegance in his work, but he also showcased practicality with rainwear from Mele that combined style with functionality. Metlicovitz understood that fashion should not be limited to fair weather; it should withstand even the harshest elements while still exuding sophistication. His collaborations were not confined to Italy alone; international recognition came knocking at his door when he designed a German poster promoting the 1906 International Exhibition in Milan. This further solidified Metlicovitz's reputation as an artist who transcended borders and captured attention worldwide. Among his notable creations are posters for operas like Iris by Pietro Mascagni and Il Ragno Azzurro (The Blue Spider) by Alberto Iginio Randegger. Each lithograph brought these productions to life before they even hit the stage, enticing audiences with their vibrant colors and intricate details.
