Born in Naples, the son of artist Eduoardo Matania, Fortunino Matania studied at his father’s studio, designing a soap advertisement at the age of nine and exhibiting his first work at Naples Academy aged only eleven. Only a few years later he was helping his father produce illustrations for books and magazines. In his 20s Matania worked first in Paris and then London, where he was asked to cover the coronation of Edward VII for ‘The Graphic’. Matania subsequently covered every major event concerning British royalty up to the coronation of Queen Elizabeth in 1953. In 1904, Matania joined the staff of ‘The Sphere’ where some of his most famous work was to appear, including his illustrations of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. At the outbreak of the First World War, Matania became a war artist and was acclaimed for his graphic and realistic images of trench warfare. After the war, he switched to scenes of ancient high life for the British woman’s magazine, ‘Britannia and Eve’, and was praised for his depictions of voluptuous nudes. Matania exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy and Royal Institute from 1908 and his work appeared in most of the principal magazines in Britain and America. He was a popular illustrator for advertising, posters and catalogues, working for Ovaltine, Burberry’s and many others. Matania also worked on films, most notably ‘The Ten Commandments’, producing a number of paintings of Rome and Egypt from which authentic designs could be made. (6)
