Pampuri Basilio is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Basilio Pampuri made his living as a printer in Milan, turning out posters and handbills by day and sketching at night. Look closely at his 1840s street scenes and you’ll spot the same lamp-post reflected in shop windows, a quiet joke that keeps the city from feeling like a postcard. Head to Milan’s Museo del Risorgimento to see how his prints pinned stories to lampposts and café walls long before Instagram did.
