Part of a series on the great masters of Italian photography conceived by Roberto Koch, the book follows Luca Campigotto on a journey through a physical, political and emotional Europe, past, present and future. It runs from the eastern frontiers between Turkey, Armenia and Georgia to the Atlantic coasts of Portugal and France, from the Svalbard archipelago in the far north to Lampedusa and the slopes of Mount Etna in the south. The continent that emerges is one of extraordinary diversity, where the grandeur of past centuries and the tragedies of recent years coexist and often overlap, from the Parthenon under restoration to a demolished building in Vukovar, moving between margins and centre in history, politics and landscape.
