Crocicchi: Idealism and Metamorphosis

by Umberto Cecchi, Luca Crocicchi

Moving from Giotto crayons to oil paints at age 17, the young, mostly self-taught Luca Crocicchi reached high standards of art-making via a dreamy painting style. This volume contains an overview of the artistic career of this son of agricultural laborers, who came from, as he used to say, "an ugly little village, so remote that not even the most detailed maps show it."
