Città di Locarno,Musei e Cultura, Pinacoteca Comunale Casa Rusca. Ernesto Jacomelli (24.3.1898 Locarno, 3.12.1973 Locarno) di origine italiana. Nel 1928, trasferitosi a Parigi, si inserì come poeta nell'ambiente artistico di Montparnasse, scrisse per riviste d'arte e organizzò diverse mostre. Trasferitosi a Ginevra nel 1939, partecipò a trasmissioni radiofoniche, scrisse per diversi giornali e lavorò presso l'ufficio svizzero del turismo. Nel 1949 fondò, assieme a Pierre Cailler, la Gilda internazionale dell'incisione mentre nel 1955 creò L'OEuvre gravée, due iniziative editoriali che contribuirono al rinnovamento dell'arte della stampa e diedero notorietà ad alcuni dei maggiori artisti del XX sec. (Appel, Arp, Braque, Campigli, Corneille, Crippa, Marino Marini, Serge Poliakoff, Zoran Music, Alfred Manessier, Hans Erni, Severini. e tanti altri). Tornato a Locarno nel 1949, Jacometti collaborò con Virgilio Gilardoni e lasciò alla città quasi tutte le sue edizioni assieme a centinaia di incisioni originali, conservate presso la Pinacoteca comunale Casa Rusca. Nel 1953 ricevette il gran premio della critica alla Biennale di Venezia per il suo contributo alla storia dell'arte. 2 voll.in cofanetto con piatti figg.a col. cm.22x24, pp.856 complessive.,70 ill.a col.e 1700 in bn.nt., Firenze, Octavo.

“An important new book on Chianti Classico: Winners of the André Simon 2013 award for their book The World of Sicilian Wine, Nesto and Di Savino have produced the investigative, scholarly and detailed book that Chianti Classico has long deserved. Nesto and Di Savino are brilliant historic investigators. . . . A must-read for anyone seriously interested in wine.”—Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com This book tells the story of the ancient land named Chianti and the modern wine appellation known as Chianti Classico. In 1716, Tuscany’s penultimate Medici ruler, Cosimo III, anointed the region of Chianti, along with three smaller areas in the Florentine State, as the world’s first legal appellations of origin for wine. In the succeeding centuries, this milestone was all but forgotten. By the late nineteenth century, the name Chianti, rather than signifying this historic region and its celebrated wine, identified a simple Italian red table wine in a straw-covered flask.   In the twenty-first century, Chianti Classico emerged as one of Italy’s most dynamic and fashionable wine zones. Chianti Classico relates the fascinating evolution of Chianti as a wine region and reveals its geographic and cultural complexity. Bill Nesto, MW, and Frances Di Savino explore the townships of Chianti Classico and introduce readers to the modern-day winegrowers who are helping to transform the region. The secrets of Sangiovese, the principal vine variety of Chianti, are also revealed as the book unlocks the myths and mysteries of one of Italy’s most storied wine regions. The publication of Chianti Classico coincides with the three hundredth anniversary of the Medici decree delimiting the region of Chianti on September 24, 1716.

The World of Sicilian Wine provides wine lovers with a comprehensive understanding of Sicilian wine, from its ancient roots to its modern evolution. Offering a guide and map to exploring Sicily, Bill Nesto, an expert in Italian wine, and Frances Di Savino, a student of Italian culture, deliver a substantive appreciation of a vibrant wine region that is one of Europe’s most historic areas and a place where many cultures intersect. From the earliest Greek and Phoenician settlers who colonized the island in the eighth century B.C., the culture of wine has flourished in Sicily. A parade of foreign rulers was similarly drawn to Sicily’s fertile land, sun-filled climate, and strategic position in the Mediterranean. The modern Sicilian quality wine industry was reborn in the 1980s and 1990s with the arrival of wines made with established international varieties and state-of-the-art enology. Sicily is only now rediscovering the quality of its indigenous grape varieties, such as Nero d’Avola, Nerello Mascalese, Frappato, Grillo, and distinctive terroirs such as the slopes of Mount Etna.
