The Franklin Institute

This beautiful trifold brochure was used by The Franklin Institute to invite guests to the East Coast premiere gala celebrating the opening of “Vatican Splendors,” a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the Vatican’s paintings, sculptures and artifacts. The exhibition held at The Franklin Institute contains works of some of history’s most celebrated artists, including Michelangelo, Bernini and Guercino.

The invitation for this gala needed to match the beauty and significance of the works being exhibited. To create a special sense of inspiration, the brochure was printed on a metallic paper with an aqueous satin coating. Gold foil stamping provides an extra touch on the cover to help the design impress.
