DIVERSION follows the tradition of 1930s journals commissioned by the pharmaceutical industries and richly illustrated by photography. luxurious and confidential, since reserved for doctors, they solicit and remunerate the new generation of photographers for the illustration of reports but also for the booming advertising. rotogravure printing serves a neat layout, where photographs, text and designs blend elegantly on the double page spread.
