Rossellini Does It Again, Dumps Ingrid

1957. Letterpress newspaper headline, 59.7 x 41.9cm. Major tears, creases, surface loss, old folds.

Text includes “Daily Mirror, Monday, May 20, 1957. Printed and published by Donald Bennett, 112 Beach Street, Coogee, for Truth and Sportsman Limited, at the office of the company, corner Kippax and Holt Streets, Sydney. Lotto 3850.”

Roberto Rossellini and Ingrid Bergman started dating in 1949 and made several films together, including Stromboli (1950); Europe ’51 (1952); and Journey to Italy (1954). Their five year relationship was considered to be scandalous, and it led to Bergman being denounced by the Catholic Church and the US Senate (Senator Edwin C. Johnson condemning her as “a powerful influence for evil.”) Ref: The Guardian, 30 August 2015.
