This work is the result of a common effort carried out between scientists and enterprises: it is a significant example of what should be done all over the world when we deal with Cultural Heritage artefacts. The chapters of this book represent the various aspects of the work carried out on the mural paintings of Casa Vasari and show how accurately and precisely an artefact can be analyzed. Many scientists gave an important contribute to this work: from a chemical approach to a managerial one. An interdisciplinary work to understand, conserve and promote the frescoes of the great hall of Casa Vasari.

In October 2009, a major artwork by Leonardo da Vinci was uncovered. The 500 year-old portrait is one of the most extraordinary discoveries of our time. This is the story of how a team of experts - led by Professor Martin Kemp -pieced together the evidence, detailed historical research and technical analysis to follow a trail that leads back to the 15th Century. There is an element of mystery and an aura of mystical glamour that surrounds Leonardo. So when news of the discovery broke, it was met with astonishment, even disbelief. Here was a new work of art by a genius who left us astonishingly few - no more than a handful. Martin Kemp takes us on a journey of discovery recounting the steps he and Pascal Cotte took in authenticating the painting including the use of forensic methods usually reserved for criminal investigation. He recounts how experts matched a fingerprint found on La Bella Principessa to the great Renaissance master. This discovery throws new light on Leonardo da Vinci and his world. We learn the story of the girl who inspired the painting. The sitter, a beautiful young girl, displays a sense of melancholy and strength, a tender and fragile beauty. But who is she?By far the most likely candidate is the illegitimate daughter of Duke Ludovico Sforza. Martin Kemp tells, too, the tragic story of this princess who was to die when she was just fourteen years old. Previously changing hands for just GBP12,000, the painting is now thought to be worth something in the region of GBP150 million. As 'La Bella Principessa' (The Beautiful Princess) finally goes on display to the world, the people responsible for proving it is one of Leonardo da Vinci's tell the story of its discovery. Superbly researched and richly illustrated, La Bella Principessa reveals the Renaissance and its great master

Attraverso un corpus eccezionale di opere, "Lo stile dello zar" intende documentare l'arte tessile e la moda nelle relazioni tra Italia e Russia dal XIV al XVIII secolo e i loro legami con le arti figurative. I capolavori di grandi artisti provenienti dalle collezioni dell'Ermitage (Tiziano Vecellio, Paris Bordon, Domenico Parodi, Justus Sustermans, Ludovico Cardi detto il Cigoli) unitamente alle preziose stoffe del tempo e ai capi d'abbigliamento illustrano le reciproche influenze stilistiche e culturali tra i due paesi, in un affascinante percorso tra sete preziose e dipinti di grandi maestri, tra tesori tessili del Cremlino e paraventi italiani, oreficerie e abiti della corte degli zar. Uno straordinario affresco di un'epoca, spaccato di costume, relazioni economiche e sociali, scambi culturali ed espressioni artistiche.
