Naples on the Sea Twinkles
RIGHTS SOLD TO:
Atticus (Russia)
“Nothing could be more difficult than trying to paint a picture of Naples from within, a city saturated in images and imagination. Myopia interferes, obstructing one’s vision. You can only approach a port city from the sea, the land, and even underground, but once you arrive you become its prisoner. Naples is a prism and reflects all descriptions, which it can restore in multiple versions”. A journey in pursuit of the fire that burns under the Vesuvius, of the water that sparkles in the bay, over and below the city swarming with traffic, with eyes that look skyward in a city which is also a symbol, an atmosphere, an idea. With a light, imaginative and reflective pen, Antonella Cilento performs a kind of sorcery to recount the thousand aspects of Naples.
