Abstract: In this book, Eleonora Pecchioli invites us to lift our gaze to admire the fresces, friezes and engravings of houses and palaces alike. Her text traces an historic and artistic picture of the subject, analysing veritable open air works of art that have been sadly damged by human negligence and the ravages of time.
