Ezio Anichini (1886 - 1948) was an Italian artist whose versatility, craft, and stylistic mastery were equal to many of the more well-known of his era. Anichini studied at the Academia di Belle Arti in Florence in 1902. He began his dedicated illustration work in the Art Nouveau, Symbolist, or Stile Liberty style as early as 1903. Shortly afterward, he became one of the primary cover artists for the Italian monthly Scena Illustrata (founded in 1865), and for a dozen or more other periodicals.
