Autographed photograph by the Manetti Bros: the directors of the Diabolik trilogy

A large-format color photograph immortalizes directors Marco and Antonio Manetti, known as Manetti Bros, along with the cast of the film Diabolik, set in an elegant 1960s-style backdrop with the protagonists in costume. The 30x20 cm shot celebrates the work of the two brother directors behind the film trilogy based on the famous comic book by the Giussani sisters.

A collector's item with a double signature for those who appreciate contemporary Italian genre cinema and the distinctive creativity of the two authors.

The directors: Manetti Bros

Marco Manetti (Rome, January 15, 1968) and Antonio Manetti (Rome, September 16, 1970) are two Italian brother directors, screenwriters, and film producers, known as Manetti Bros. Enthusiasts of genre cinema, they debuted as directors in 1994 with the short film Consegna a domicilio and gained their first recognition with Torino Boys (1997). Throughout their career, they directed the television series L'ispettore Coliandro and numerous music videos, before achieving full acclaim with Ammore e malavita (2017), winner of the Pasinetti Award in Venice and the David di Donatello for best film. Since 2021, they have directed the film trilogy dedicated to Diabolik, starring Luca Marinelli, Miriam Leone, and Valerio Mastandrea, confirming themselves as among the most original Italian directors in reinterpreting genre cinema.

What is an original autographed photograph?

An original autographed photograph is a unique piece where the artist's signature has been directly applied to the print, without intermediaries or mechanical reproductions. It is recognizable by verifiable elements such as the irregular pressure of the stroke, the three-dimensionality of the ink on the paper, and the spontaneity of the graphic gesture, elements absent in printed signatures or facsimiles. In addition to these, a free MTM Letter of Authenticity (LOA) is provided, with the option of a third-party COA for internationally recognized protection. In the case of items with a double signature, like this one, the collectible value is further enhanced by the presence of both authors on the same piece.
