Porta Romana
The Porta Romana company designs custom lighting for galleries, hotels and homes. The meticulous care with which each piece of lighting is crafted shows through in the elaborate sculpting and glasswork of its table lamps and wall lights.
Porta Romana began in 1988 in a small workshop in London, founded by designers Andrew and Sarah Hills. They held the ideal of creating breathtaking lighting fixtures that would last a lifetime and beyond.
Collectors took notice of Porta Romana’s impressive work, and its clientele grew. In 2018, the Royal Academy of Arts in London commissioned Porta Romana to create an installation. The company placed two magnificent starburst pendant lights in a public staircase outside the academy president’s office.
The company collaborates with masters in their respective crafts, from glassmakers to metal shapers. Its designers have built relationships with these makers, so they are able to provide informed input in producing the individual parts that comprise each finished piece.
Still located in London, Porta Romana continues to work closely with clients and artisans to create spectacular custom lighting pieces for customers across the world.

Jean Da Milano, Painting, France, circa 2000
Located in Nice, Cote d' Azur
Jean Da Milano (1928-2017), painting,
Creased paper,
Signed lower right,
circa 2000, France.
Measures: Height 115 cm, Width 90 cm
Jean Da Milano is an abstract painter from Nice who was cradled by the rich breeding ground of the School of Nice and its artists.
Active from the 1960s to the 2008s, his works were forgotten and rediscovered by the HARTER Gallery, which today highlights his touch.
According to Agnès Roux, Honorary Secretary for Culture, “Jean Da Milano is one of those modest painters who knew how to develop abstract painting alongside his contemporaries. In an infinite world, the Kinetic object on an astral background gradually transforms into a pictorial relief, where the painting falsely becomes painting and invisibly paper. The humility of its formats does not give the work the fullness it deserves. But the almighty gaze of the spectator engenders the feelings and sensations of a cosmogonic painting steeped in universality ".
We indeed observe in his work an evolution which begins with an almost cosmic painting in the 70s, then what we could qualify as “implosions” in the 80s and finally, a real research on paper and pictorial relief. in the 2000s.
According to Georges Braque "Everyone is a creator, the viewer is himself a creator, it is the way of seeing that gives life to the object. "
