Item History & Price
ANNO'S ITALY By Mitsumasa Anno - Hardcover
"Scenes of Italian daily life of the past and present are interwoven with the theme of the life of Christ as depicted in famous Italian religious paintings."
"Anno depicts a lone traveler riding on horseback first through the Italian countryside, then the many marvelous cities of Italy, and then, going full circle, the lush countryside once more. As readers' eyes feast upon the detailed, watercolor images, they will see such things as Ma...rilyn Monroe, The Last Supper, Rapunzel, and the Trevi Fountain, and the book becomes an interactive experience. Not only can the audience search for the lone traveler, but they can also try to locate as many recognizable figures as they possibly can."
"Mitsumasa Anno (born March 20, 1926) is a Japanese illustrator and writer of children's books, known best for picture books with few or no words. He received the international Hans Christian Andersen Medal in 1984 for his "lasting contribution to children's literature".
