Paintings and graphics: depictions of estates, labels, landscapes and family trees
The term ‘Cabreo,’ widespread in the 18th century, originates from the Latin ‘Caput,’ ‘main item’ and ‘Brevis,’ ‘list, register.’ Historically, these are collections of maps and drawings concerning individual properties.
A label condenses information and evokes the essence of the product: its nature, the vision of those who produce it, its position on the market, its history, the territory and the climate.
The books, Il Borro and Its Seasons and Il Fungarino, a Choice of Life, published by Edifir Firenze, represent two examples of portraits of landscapes through the physical and emotional characteristics of a place.
The family roots and the roots of people relating to any region are connected: everyone has a land and a family of origin and weaves links with the places and people they meet throughout their life.
