Roma, published by D’ORO Collection in 2000, is the new edition – entirely handmade in numbered copies - of the first publication which dates back to 1984. The Volume is a collection of writings by eight Italian 20th-century intellectuals who are regarded as the greatest experts in Latin literature. An overview of Rome from the early Christian age to the modern 20th century from a historical, cultural and artistic perspective.

The text includes a preface by Ettore Paratore and 6 chapters written by different authors. Roma Paleocristiana by Carlo Belli; Via Margutta by Salvato Cappelli; La Rocca Irripetibile by Emilio Cavaterra; Il Gran Lume della Poesia Romanesca by Giuseppe D’Arrigo; Volo su Roma by Fabrizio Sarazani and Roma nel XX secolo by Ugo Spirito.

This 234-page book is printed in only 1999 numbered copies and contains 75 engravings and 15 lithographies reproducing views of the city. The drawings are by great Italian maestros: Campigli, De Chirico, Donghi, Failla, Fantuzzi, Giuffrè, Mafai, Razzi, Ricci, Scalco, Scipione, Severini.

The Roma Volume published by D’ORO Collection is entirely handmade using artisan paper with 220 gram thickness. Each page is stitched by master craftsmen using wooden frames of the type used in the Middle Ages. The covers of Roma are made of red leather lined with silk. Two bronze reliefs, gilded by immersion into a 24 Kt gold bath, form the front and back covers.

A luxury book of unique value, shape and contents – created by merging the ancient bookbinding techniques with the works of great artists of everlasting renown.
