Inspired by the poster art Christian worked on these two iconic illustrations representing the future and past ambitions of one of the great soccer player of all times, two joint winners of the FIFA Player of the 20th Century award. His image was rendered in Adobe Illustrator using a few range of color palette, along with some additional textures elements using Adobe Photoshop.

Based out of Milan, Italy, Christian specializes in editorial and conceptual illustration. In his own words: “Translating a story in a single image was always for me the most exciting challenge.” He has worked with a variety of publications throughout the years, and has also helped agencies worldwide in some important advertising campaigns. In addition to being a regular contributor to the political Italian magazine Internazionale, Christian has worked with a number of international clients, including Scientific American, The Boston Globe, Men’s Health, Wired UK and many more.
