From the traces of a great Greek and Roman presence, to its Arab-Norman buildings and gleaming mosaics, from the inlays and dazzling whites of the flourishing Baroque period, right up to the 20th century with its elegant Art Nouveau - all of these layers unfold in the pages of this volume. The curator Giorgio Villani's texts outline an itinerary for discovering Palermo, introducing readers to key moments and places, and ending with a gallery of characters who, though unique and at times peculiar, are deeply relevant to the city's composite identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Franco Maria Ricci Editore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9791280294937\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.00h x 11.40w x 1.10d","brand":"Giorgio Villani","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51990931308725,"sku":"9791280294937","price":80.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_edd71ada-e9b4-4b4f-ad97-231a53235c82.jpg?v=1762838379","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/palermo-9791280294937","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
