Description
Campigli and the Etruscans: A Pagan Happiness Franco Calarota's book explores the connection between the Italian artist Massimo Campigli's work and the Etruscan civilisation. In 1928, Campigli visited the Etruscan Museum in Rome, where he found a sense of pagan happiness that influenced his artistic style. This book brings together a selection of Campigli's works with Etruscan artefacts, highlighting their shared atmospheric and symbolic elements. The catalogue features a unique and in-depth examination of Campigli's art, accompanied by previously unpublished material on Etruscan archaeology. The book showcases rare and previously unseen artefacts from the Soprintendenza Archeologia, Belle Arti e Paesaggio for the province of Viterbo and Etruria Meridionale, which are now stored in the high Lazio region. By examining the intersection of art and archaeology, Calarota sheds new light on Campigli's artistic development and the cultural heritage of the Etruscan civilisation.
