Business stationery (cover) used by Studio d’Arte PESENTI in Ponte S. Pietro/Bergamo (Italy), photographic studio. The studio was active from early 1900s to early 2000s. It was founded in the late nineteenth century by Angelo Pesenti in Almenno San Bartolomeo and then transferred to Ponte San Pietro by his daughter Angelica Pesenti (b. 1906) who, after graduating from the School of photochemistry and applied photography of Rodolfo Namias in Milan, dedicated her whole life to the photographic profession. Over 100000 photographic images, mostly negatives on glass plates and on films, taken by her and her son Elio Velardita Pesenti, are now in the collection of Historical Museum of Bergamo.
