Skrevet af ERROL BARRON

In Roma Osservata/Rome Observed Errol Barron has once again compiled a
collection of drawings based on the features of a beloved city. As in
its predecessor, New Orleans Observed, he has in this small volume
reproduced pages from his sketchbooks, his constant companions as he
explores how the effects of light, scale, and structure can express the
spirit of a place. During two eight week sessions as professor for the
Tulane School of Architecture Rome Program, he found himself following
in the footsteps of all those who have gone to Rome and been
transformed; the drawings compiled as he moved about the city on his
folding bike and the explanatory notes written later in a time of
reflection pay tribute to that heritage with perception and wit. The
book is both a souvenir for those who love Rome and an excursion for
those who love drawing. In both English and Italian.
