Mario Carrieri was a leading photojournalist and cinematographer associated with the Italian neo-realists. He was influenced by William Klein's Life is Good & Good For You in New York... (1956) and shared a similarly raw view, though his layout is slightly more restrained. Carrieri spent time photographing in the suburbs and the centre of Milan, focusing mostly on this hard Italian city's less glamorous working side. 'One of the most important works of the neo-realist tendency of the 1950s' (Parr). In the same year as Milano, Italia, Klein published his impressions of Italy in Rome: The City and Its People.
