EDITORS COMMENTS
The Helvetia Poster by Umberto Boccioni, created in 1909, is a vibrant and dynamic lithograph that captures the essence of Swiss insurance company, Helvetia. This artwork showcases Boccioni's unique style as an Italian futurist artist. In this print, we see a powerful image that combines elements of strength and protection. The central figure appears to be an angel with wings spread wide open, symbolizing safety and security. Anchored firmly to the ground, this angelic figure represents the unwavering commitment of Helvetia in providing insurance against accidents and liability. Boccioni's use of bold colors adds to the overall impact of the poster. The red cross prominently displayed on the angel's chest serves as a reminder of emergency aid and assistance provided by Helvetia. The illustration exudes dynamism through its energetic lines and shapes, reflecting both movement and progress. This iconic artwork not only highlights Boccioni's artistic prowess but also pays homage to Switzerland's national identity with its reference to "Helvetia" derived from ancient Roman times when Switzerland was known as "Helvetic Confederation". As we admire this timeless piece from Umberto Boccioni's collection, let us appreciate how art can transcend time and language barriers while conveying important messages about trust, protection, and responsibility.
