Alabaster sculpture designed and produced by Mario Urbani in 1930, Volterra. Single piece. Biography Urbani, Mario, architect, painter, artist, (Rome 1885 - Pesaro 1961), SIUSA Mario Urbani studied at the School of Fine Arts in Rome and attended the Architecture Course, graduating in 1909. He worked for three years as a technical draughtsman in the State Railways, then attended the Higher School of Painting of Aristide Sartorio, with whom he made, in 1910-11, some frescoes in the Parliament Hall that celebrated the history of Italy, whose sketches were exhibited at the Venice Biennale in 1909. In the same years he worked alongside some Roman architects: Bazzani, Calderini, Garroni, Pazzi, Pio Piacentini, Pistrucci and Quaroni, contributing to the design of the pavilions for the Universal Exposition in Rome, in 1911, on the occasion of the Fiftieth Anniversary of Rome. In that year, after winning a national competition, he furnished the courthouse of Rome and also executed some frescoes, still extant, at the Viminale and the Ministry of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce inspired by De Carolis, artist present in Rome at the end of the nineteenth century, beginning of the twentieth century. Soon after Urbani began his career as a teacher in Sant'Angelo in Vado, at the Zuccari School of Art. In this town he made late decorations - liberty in a mill, a monument to the fallen, a large copper plate...

Traveling from north to south, as in the Villages volume, we encounter first the towns with substantial Etruscan and Romanesque features, then the walled towns of central Tuscany, followed by the coastal and thermal communities of the south. The country towns described and photographed in this book have been selected not only to exemplify the remarkable variety of this part of Italy but also because they embody its exceptional artistic and architectural heritage. There are works by Luca della Robbia and Donatello in Impruneta; Piero della Francesca was born in Sansepolcro. The architects of the Renaissance have left many masterpieces as well, often under the patronage of powerful local families: Michelozzo built the Villa Medici near Fiesole, while Giuliano da Sangallo designed the Medici fortress at Sansepolcro. Other aspects of the cultural heritage of these towns are more ancient: Volterra has the remains of Etruscan walls...
