Book Description
An elegant and original photo book illustrating once again the excellence of products made in Italy. After Italian Touch, produced with Tod's in 2009 and distributed with great success all over the world, the autumn of 2012 will see the publication of a new volume: a gallery of images of Italian men of different ages and origins with a shared passion for elegance and the highest quality. Some thirty men, including a writer, jeweller, a painter, an entrepreneur and philanthropist, a journalist and an aristocrat, are photographed in their chosen settings: the home, the office, the garden or the city. Their lifestyles, born out of a natural flair for combining elegance and quality, are encapsulated in images and short phrases. Beauty becomes a matter of seeking and choosing, the expression of ideas and traditions, creativity and respect, a language capable of conveying the culture that represents the true excellence of products made in Italy.

Book Description
Still-Life as Portrait in Early Modern Italy centers on the still-life compositions created by Evaristo Baschenis and Bartolomeo Bettera, two 17th-century painters living and working in the Italian city of Bergamo. This highly original study explores how these paintings form a dynamic network in which artworks, musical instruments, books, and scientific apparatuses constitute links to a dazzling range of figures and sources of knowledge. Putting into circulation a wealth of cultural information and ideas and mapping a complex web of social and intellectual relations, these works paint a portrait of both their creators and their patrons, while enacting a lively debate among humanist thinkers, aristocrats, politicians, and artists. Engaging with literary blockbusters and banned books, theatrical artifice and music, and staging a war among the arts, Baschenis and Bettera capture the latest social intrigues, political rivalries, intellectual challenges, and scientific innovations of their time. In doing so, they structure an unstable economy of social, aesthetic, and political values that questions the notion of absolute truth, while probing the distinctions between life and artifice, meaningless marks and meaningful signs.
