Giotto, vis à vis, Volti e mani dalla capella degli scrovegni
Roland Giotto - Lorenzo Capellini
Umberto Allemandi & C., 2002

The restoration of Giotto's wall paintings in the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua lasted eight months, ending in March 2002: an opportunity that Lorenzo Capellini did not miss to portray the faces and hands in the frescoes in close-up, using the same scaffolding as the restorers. The book accompanies the visitor in an exciting "impossible" reading, guiding him to the discovery of details of the characters painted by Giotto otherwise almost unreadable, because either too far away or too damaged. Capellini thus makes possible a moving, intimate encounter with one of the greatest pictorial cycles of Italian art, an ideal identification with the artist himself while the gestures, looks and physiognomies represent the essence of the characters and their stories
