Castelli per tutte le stagioni. Castelforte di Puglia e la fortuna del neogotico in Italia

Abstract

[EN] The 1884 Turin International Exhibition bequeathed one of the most cultured and refined stone translations of the medieval dream of an era and an entire generation. The medieval hamlet of Valentino, built at the slopes of the Po' and designed by Alfredo d'Andrade, is the clearest representation and it initiates a phenomenon of exercises on the same theme that crosses the whole peninsula and bypasses the nineteenth century.
