Bologna is the city of porticoes. Par excellence. Not only because she has more porticoes than any other city has. And not even because she boasts the peculiar record of the longest portico in the world, the San Luca's. Actually there is no doubt that this definition dates back to the Middle Ages and since then the portico has belonged to the city to such a degree that to imagine Bologna without porticoes today it's no easy task, not to say impossible.
But since each portico is different one from the other, has his own peculiarities, develops light and shade effects as well as strictly personal atmospheres, the book which comes out will catch the reader for the wide range of views and impressions from them arousing.
