LUCCA Photography by Giovanni Padroni – Text by Franco Lefèvre Pacini Editore An encounter with Lucca, described by author as a token of affection and gratitude, in which he has chosen to focus on details in an imaginary stroll towards a point somewhere between a dream and dreamed up reality. A “modest” relationship with the town’s spaces where the streets, almost always narrow and winding and frequently punctuated by half-open gateways leading to mysterious gardens, are the sign of an unusual and almost magic harmony. |

ORME PISANE IN SARDEGNA Photography by Giovanni Padroni – Text by M. L. Testi Cristiani, M. Tangheroni, F. C. Casula Pacini Editore A journey through Sardinia in search, and in contemplation of the enchantment of medieval buildings constructed by the Pisans when they ruled this Island; a parched, elemental Land though eloquent to those who know how to listen to its voices and silences with respect and humility. Churches, ornate or unostentatious, places of worship that fascinate the author not only through their history and beauty but also because they are the emblematic affirmation of devoutness and the restoring of spiritual and material values, under the sign of an integral vision of the Person. |

SENTIERI & NATURA nella provincia di Pisa Photography Giovanni Padroni, Text by Marco Lambertini Ecofor Service The Pisan coast offers high quality bathing establishments for holidaymakers and wild, uncontaminated shores where plants and animals live and grow in often extremely inhospitable conditions among the dunes. In Spring, during the mating season, the woods resound with concerts of birdsong. Lake Massaciuccoli, a friendly place and the beloved home of Puccini, is one of the most important wetlands in and beyond Tuscany. |

LA NATURA RITROVATA Photography by Giovanni Padroni – Introduction by Franco Cardini Ecofor Service/Geofor Nature is a great artist in the eyes of those who know how to love her with humility, respect and involvement. With his photographs the author portrays the supreme harmony of Nature, experienced day by day through small details that are often missed. In this volume we read flowers, leaves, trees, the dance of water; we feel the beauty of wood decorated by time and the work of man, the signs of the Earth. The thread that joins all this is the phrase of Fedor Dostoievsky, repeated with tender assurance by Pope John Paul II in his Letter to Artists: "beauty will save the world". |

Flora e Fauna, nei paesaggi di Toscana...realtà e suggestioni Photography by Giovanni Padroni, Text by Marco Lambertini Pacini Editore Nature is fascinating and engrossing. Every image in this volume is an encounter with her, marked by informal interpretations that break with tradition. Signs that can change into dreams. Because photography, in Henri Cartier Bresson’s words, is an instant frozen in geometry. We perceive nature with our hearts rather than through our eyes. Once again in this volume the camera becomes a powerful instrument for exploration. It opens the way to research. When approaching the landscape and the flora and fauna of Tuscany, photography provides an epiphany of emotions and culture, wherever mankind has left a fascinating or wondrous testimony of their activity over the millennia, moulding the environment into a harmonious and thriving system. |

Nature, History and Images. The Park of Migliarino, San Rossore e Massaciuccoli Photography by Giovanni Padroni Edizioni Plus This volume, published by Pisa University Press, is dedicated to the naturalistic and historical characteristics of the Park. It highlights the close cultural relationship between the University and this important corner of a region rich in history, culture and beauty - in short: a place in which issues concerning ecology, sustainable farming and livestock farming meet with eco-compatible tourism and interventions for their protection and safeguard. Nature is more than merely something to admire. Its beauty and harmony are the result of factors both great and small. These photographs take us on a journey through the Park, revealing its charm through enchanted eyes lit by love. |
