Information
Splendid Liber Amicorum in brown leather with embossed impressions on the plates and traces of clasps, inside over 40 signatures, dedications, inscriptions of various lengths, letters, tickets, musical staves, etc. A vast sample of the high-ranking friendships of the aristocrat Paolina Clelia Silvia Bondi, whose wonderful portrait by Vittorio Corcos, just eleven years old, remains one of the most intriguing and fascinating paintings of the early twentieth century. Autograph collecting mainly focuses on writers, musicians and various artists. The names on the list are really many and all important, but they deserve mention, among others: the two letters from Anatole France, the manuscript page of Giovanni Pascoli with the text of Cantilene (poem included in Myricae but with two different denominations), the manuscript poem of Trilussa, the two letters of Puccini < /b>and the wonderful signed and dedicated music line of the Boheme, the signature of Guglielmo Marconi, the beautiful dedication/phrase of Gabriele d'Annunzio ("Danger is the axis of sublime life"), the postcard of the Nobel prize for literature Grazia Deledda, the beautiful undersigned sentence of Victor Hugo, the poignant letter from Benedetto Cairoli to his brother Giovanni, in prison etc.etc.
