Images of Barga during the 30's
An interesting find in a cellar in Barga this week; three
boxes containing zinc printing plates from the 30's. The images
that have come to light include Mussolini entering Fornaci
di Barga and various other events and views of Barga Vecchia
between the two wars. The plates have suffered from their
60 years of solitude but restoration work has already began
and experts are expecting that once again they will be able
to print from the plates and bring these historic images once
more into the light. |
