Item Number: 132023 Title: Chaplin and Costa: Rediscovering Expat Women Painters in Tuscany : Pittrici straniere in Toscana - una riscoperta Author: Ciacci, Margherita (et al) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788897696018 Description: Firenze: Florentine Press, 2014. 20cm., pbk., 96pp. illus., most in color. Italian-English text. Exhibition held at Villa Il Palmerino, Firenze. Summary: This series of lyrical essays follows the cypress-lined trail joining neighboring Tuscan villas, toward an intimate, image-filled journey documenting the lives and works of two international women artists who made the hills of Florence and Fiesole their creative home. Elisabeth Chaplin and Lola Costa: Rediscovering Expat Women Painters in Tuscany takes art lovers from the restoration studio into the museum spotlight, from the Pitti Palace’s Modern Art Gallery to Il Palmerino, the historic fort- tower turned artist haunt. This catalog-style volume, which accompanies the Florence exhibition Private Mythologies, offers a glimpse of female creativity in the 1900s and rediscovers a legacy that must not be left to fade into oblivion.
