A tribute to the city of Turin seen through the lens of several great photographers who plied their trade, so to speak, during the years from 1920. The most important names in 20th-century photographic experimentation, Gabinio, Baravalle, Molino, Peretti Griva, started from the aesthetic theories of pictorialism, and oriented themselves towards formulating a "modern" photographic vision. Unusual views of the city and lively moments of urban life in a collection of 100 pictures of great artistic sensitivity and emotional charm. Text is in Italian, description courtesy of Antiquariat und Versandbuchhandel Uwe Löb.
