This volume contains magnificent images of famous or unknown masterpieces from the province of Latina and essays on its main towns, from Gaeta to Ninfa.
The vast repertoire of illustrations is accompanied by texts describing the main towns, from Gaeta to Ninfa, and a series of essays: by Pier Giacomo Sottoriva on the history of the district; by Paolo Corti on the Agro Pontino marshes between the 18th and 20th centuries; by Riccardo Mariano on the cities built during the Fascist period, which to our contemporary eyes appear reminiscent of De Chirico.
