The Lombardy Regional Exposition for the Decorative Arts of 1919 was organized by the Humanitarian Society of Milan and held at their premises.
This exhibition was a prelude to the Decorative Arts Biennials of Monza, Italy held in 1923, 1925, 1927 - becoming a Triennial in 1930. The exhibition would then transfer to Milan in 1933. The Triennial of Milan is still held today.
I have been organizing material for both the Monza Biennials and the Milan Triennials to tell you about so look for that in future posts!
I also note that I forgot to include this coloured embroidery by the Humanitarian Society from the Emporium article yesterday:

Much thanks to Claudio at the Ning Group MI1906 for the additional info!!
Lovely dragonfly (good luck omen in Italy) piece, thanks!
