The book «Castel Sant’Angelo. Mausoleum of Hadrian. Architecture & Light» (also in English edition)
Explores one of the most fascinating and complex monuments of ancient Rome.
It tells the story of Hadrian’s Mausoleum,
born as a monumental dynastic tomb and transformed over the centuries into an impregnable fortress and luxurious papal residence, then into a prison and finally into a Museum.
Exploring the relationship between the ancient Roman nucleus still preserved within the medieval, Renaissance and Baroque additions,
the book reveals the secrets of an architecture designed to dialogue with Light,
which creates special illuminations inside it.
With a rich iconographic apparatus and a rigorous but accessible narration
, the volume will guide you on a journey back in time with a brand new reconstruction of the ancient appearance of the Mausoleum.
A precious work for scholars, archaeologists Art historians and architecture lovers
, and for all those who want to rediscover one of the greatest monuments of Rome from a different perspective, understanding its symbolic meaning.
