Author Description

On a recently discovered unpublished manuscript on Lorenzo Lotto entitled "Lotto o l'anti-Rinascimento" by Federico Caldura, film and television director, and co-creator of the celebrated puppet, Topo Giglio. Shortly before his death, Caldura entrusted the manuscript, consisting of thousands of loose sheets, to his friend, Mario Faustinelli, who spent years piecing it together. In 2019 the manuscript was brought to the attention of Lotto scholar, Enrico Maria Dal Pozzolo, who recounts the history of the manuscript along with excerpts of the text.
