Two pairs of XX appear on the poster: the first pair falls into the background in black color while the second moves into the foreground bearing two orange palettes to accentuate their shadow and width. Above them, the words SECOLO XX dangle over, cut in half where the upper portion swerves to the left as if forced to dance by an invisible wind.
Looking at the bigger picture, a spotlight, unseen from the canvas, seems to blast its light from the left part and forms the gray background where the XX hover. The image may resemble the contemporary Italian graphic designs seen these days, but a peek at the date of this work will tell a different story: Secolo XX (20th century), no. 10 (1929). Even then, Fortunato Depero projected the future in the historical past.
