«Alla scoperta di Roma barocca» is an art history essay by Anthony Blunt published by Newton Compton Editori (paperback, 159 pages, in Italian).
The book presents Roman Baroque of the seventeenth century, a movement considered decadent compared to the Renaissance and reclaimed in the twentieth century for its splendour. Anthony Blunt analyses its architecture through Bernini, Borromini and Pietro da Cortona, protagonists of Rome's current image. It includes engravings from the period.
Published in Italian in 2007, it belongs to the «Tradizioni italiane» series by Newton Compton Editori.
For readers interested in art history, Baroque architecture and Rome's heritage.
