Synopsis

A house, a life. Discovering Giovanni Segantini in a spectacular photographic book on the artist's house in Maloja.

Maloja is a small Swiss alpine village at 1817 metres, in the midst of an extraordinary landscape of which Giovanni Segantini wrote in a letter when he arrived: "I have begun to possess these places, which are a true mine for my art". Here stands Casa Segantini, built in 1886 and still owned by the family, which has preserved numerous period photographs, documents and original furnishings, including the famous Bugatti furniture.

In front of the Segantini family chalet there is a small wooden round building, the so-called Atelier Segantini, built in 1898. Here, in fact, the artist never painted, preferring to paint en plein air, immersed in nature and in contact with his beloved mountains. It was rather his studio, in which he kept a valuable library. Designed by the artist himself, the 70-meter in diameter studio is a true-to-scale wooden model of the Engadin Pavilion, constructed for the 1900 Paris World Exhibition. It was designed to display a huge picture of the Bergell and Engadin countryside on its 220-meter long wall, but the work remained unfinished.
