Especially Lombardy. Images of Italy XXI
29.99 €
The book is a journey through Milan, Pavia, Brescia, Como, Cremona and other places in Lombardy that only a select few can afford. Such Italy is a rare, expensive, almost inaccessible gift. Arkady Ippolitov, writer, scholar-artist, connoisseur-traveler, leading the reader on the most brilliant of all possible excursions, not only tells what to see, but also reveals how to see. Castles, cathedrals, palaces, paintings, streets, squares, statues and restaurants come to life, become familiar, interesting, breathe with details and acquire the facial expressions of Leonardo, Archimboldo, Napoleon... Cartesians and chartreuse, goose sausage and "stupid beef", Milanese fortune-tellers and grimacing mascarones... The first wish of the reader is to fly to Italy armed with the book and see it with new eyes.
