Help Bring Fratini’s Legacy to Life

About the book

In London’s swinging sixties, Fratini lived fast, painted faster, and became the go-to artist for movie studios, publishers, and ad agencies.

From Bond to Carry On, from romance novels to crime thrillers, his brush captured glamour, expression, and drama like no one else.

The Art of Renato Fratini is the first-ever book to uncover his extraordinary story and showcase his astonishing body of work.

Author Timothy R. Smith has dedicated ten years to researching, collecting, and interviewing and unearthing hundreds of unseen paintings, posters, and illustrations, many never credited, never catalogued, never shown until now.

The Art of Renato Fratini is a beautifully written and designed 420-page volume featuring hundreds of artworks, many never seen before. Printed to the highest standards in Italy and available with exclusive collector editions, it stands as the ultimate tribute to a forgotten master of commercial art.
