Considerations Starting from the Materials of the Antonio Morassi Photo Archive
abstract
This paper attempts to analyse archival photographs related to Venezia Giulia and Istria, which are preserved in the photo archive Antonio Morassi of the Dipartimento di Filosofia e Beni Culturali, Ca’ Foscari. The aim is giving relevance to the action of the ‘Ufficio Belle Arti e Monumenti’ of the superintendence of Trieste, where Antonio Morassi was employed at that time, providing a documentary evidence of it through these photographs, which were taken from 1920 to 1925.
