Full description for The Light in Between
It was in June 1916 that Princess Vittoria Colonna met the Futurist painter Umberto Boccioni. The love affair between them was brief but intense: on August 17th Boccioni died following a fall from his horse. The last letter he received from Vittoria was found in his wallet. This is the story of a Roman princess, a major twentieth-century artist, unbridled passion, the First World War and a tragic accident. It offers a collection of letters hidden for almost a century - all that remains of the relationship between a restless noblewoman and a tormented painter. Their letters provide the basis for the story Marella Caracciolo Chia tells, not only the story of a great love, but also the portrait of a remote and fascinating world and time.
