About The Artwork The idea for the collection "Giardino del Duca" prints was born one day while listening to David Fray's beautiful performance of a Schubert lieder in Franz Liszt's fabulous piano transcription (Liszt. 12 Lieder von Schubert, S558 / R243: No . 3. "Du bist die Ruh". David Fray) In these moving chords, I could smell the scent of the ancient roses from my dear friend Michele's garden and I saw his magnificent borzoi called Duca moving among the flowering plants with the grace only a sighthound can have…. And here! Liszt gave his interpretation of him to Schubert's songs by creating masterpieces of classical music: he took away the singing, but added his unsurpassed pianism. Why can't I also interpret the beauty of Michele's Garden using what I know how to do: photograph dogs? Indeed, a dog, THE DOG: Duke. Just as Liszt during his life transcribed about 50 of Schubert's songs, so too Michele and I begin to interpret the beauty of Duke and his Garden. I don't know if we'll get to 50 photographic portraits too, but in the meantime, here are the first ones. Of course, the "soundtrack" cannot be missing, so this time I have associated with each photograph the lieder transcribed by Liszt in my favorite performances. You can find the Playlist in my Spotify account. It is called the "Garden of the Duke". Good vision and listening!
