Alessandro Maffioletti is a German illustrator who has done work for magazines and advertising. His work combines steampunkery with Renaissance imagery and mid-twentieth century recording technologies. Basically he's a retro-futurist collage artist, and his work is both stunning and whimsical. Check out his gallery on his website.
