47 Notebooks written in Italian; very few drawings, March 12, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Aldo Rossi: I Quaderni azzurri (Paperback)
Make sure that this is what you are looking for! I had thought there would be significantly more drawings -- there aren't. This set is a beautiful facsimile of 47 of the tiny notebooks Aldo Rossi carried for much of his life. These notebooks are handwritten, in Italian, and do not contain more than a dozen or so drawings. If you are looking for his drawings, look elsewhere. If you read fluent Italian and don't mind spending $600.00 for a peek into Rossi's thought process, then this is for you.
