RITRATTO ALL’ALBA

DEL SECOLO

A PORTRAIT

AT THE TURN

OF THE CENTURY

“Pistoia, medioevale e un po’ ferrigna, arroccata presso

l’Appennino dentro un cerchio di mura sbrecciate, coi

suoi monumenti di architetture intarsiate da geometrie di

marmi bianco-neri, la grinta di animali di pietra sull’alto delle

lesene, le colline e il piano”, mentre “Firenze è sullo sfondo”.

“Pistoia, medieval and a little grey, in the shadow of the

Apennines, within a ring of broken walls, with its architectural

monuments inlaid with black-and-white marble geometries,

the ferocity of stone creatures high above the pilasters, the

hills and the plain”, whilst “Florence is in the background.”

Egle Marini, “Nell’ombra serena,” in Omaggio a Marino Marini

Silvana, Milano, 1974.
