Guercino svelato
Hercules and Antaeus in Palazzo Talon Sampieri, Bologna
The book
“Guercino svelato” gathers the research and documentation devoted to the fresco at Palazzo Talon Sampieri: the story of the work, the setting it was made for, and the history of the family who commissioned it.
A dedicated photographic campaign records the painted scene and the stucco frame in detail the eye cannot reach from the floor of the room.
