About the Book

English summary: Richly illustrated, this volume offers readers a glimpse into the unique artistic creations of the Castellani jewelry workshops. The collection presents the art of Greek, Etruscan, and Roman goldsmiths unearthed during the nineteenth century. These pieces, and thousands of others, were then transformed by the Castellani jewelers into rare gems that continue to fascinate the world of personal art. Italian description: A distanza di quasi due anni dal deprecabile furto che ha privato tutti noi di alcuni tra i piu noti e rappresentativi gioielli ritorna ad essere esposta la splendida collezione di ori antichi e moderni della famiglia Castellani. Destinata sin dal 1919 al Museo di Villa Giulia, il cui contesto artistico ededicato essenzialmente alla conoscenza della cultura etrusca, la collezione ha tuttavia ricoperto un ruolo di protagonista fuoriserieriscuotendo sempre nel pubblico dei visitatori un immenso successo. La chiave di tanto consenso non sta solo nel consistente numero di esemplari esposti, circa 2000, che i Castellani in un secolo di attivitahanno raccolto e generosamente ceduto allo Stato Italiano perchepotessero essere conosciuti ed ammirati da tutti, ma anche nell'insieme di tanti straordinari fattori che ancora oggi rendono unica e prestigiosa questa Collezione. Innanzitutto le oreficerie antiche provenienti da quegli scavi archeologici cosi diffusi alla meta del 1800 nel territorio laziale e a Roma stessa che offrono una panoramica a 360 sull'arte orafa greca, etrusca, romana distribuita nel tempo a partire dall' epoca arcaica fino ad eta barbarica; in secondo luogo lo splendore delle rielaborazioni ottocentesche create in quel famoso laboratorio di Via Poli, prima, e di Piazza Trevi, poi, noto in tutta Europa e quasi meta di pellegrinaggio da parte delle giovani e ricche signore alla moda del tempo. L'uso di tecniche raffinatissime unite ad un'attenzione quasi maniacale ad ogni particolare rendono le loro creazioni ineguagliabili a qualsiasi altro prodotto dell'artigianato orafo contemporaneo; e ancora, il sapiente accostamento di smalti, di pietre intagliate, di raffinati micromosaici e l'innovazione di inserire la moneta archeologica nel castone al posto delle piu usuali gemme preziose hanno dettato moda e continuano ad affascinare l'universo femminile.
