Antiques, Il gusto classico negli interni Italiani (Book) by Roberto Valeriani, Illustrated by Mario Ciampi. Hardcover. New, in Italian.
Antiques, Classic taste in Italian interiors. The relationship with the past, one of the most important factors in the daily life of every Italian, supposes different inclinations which all betray an almost instinctive love, a respect for the place, for the domestic traditions, that it acts of private or ceremonial habits all exterior.
The photographic eye penetrates the intimacy of aristocratic houses, those of members of high society or belonging to amateur collectors, and highlights hidden corners, furniture that reveal rare and unusual materials. Whether it is reconstructions bordering on eclecticism (such as the Laura villa in Riviera or the Florentine palace) or the preservation of a family heritage (Isola Madre, Soragna and other interiors still on these pages) the charm does not change. They are houses turned towards themselves and others with the same charm, to show how it is possible to live today in interiors with a fertile memory.
Sensational or intimate, Italian taste spontaneously acquires a curiously passionate flavor and in its infallible way by establishing links between one object and another and between them and the whole environment.
