  • Hilde in Italy – Art and Life in Photographs by Hilde Lotz-Bauer

    Hilde in Italy – Art and Life in Photographs by Hilde Lotz-Bauer
    Museum of Rome in Trastevere Piazza di S. Egidio, 1/b, Roma, RM, Italy

    Hilde Lotz-Bauer's photographs from 1930-1943 offer a unique perspective on Italy during that period. The opportunity to see 200 of her images in the Trastevere exhibition sounds like a wonderful experience, providing a glimpse into the magic of Scanno, Abruzzo and other Italian landscapes. Art has a special way of transporting us to different eras and immersing us in the beauty of the past.
