WANTED IN ROME “A Danish Dream in Abruzzo”Margaret Stenhouse writes an article about the mountain village of Civita D’Antino that was once home of a colony of Scandinavian artists. The village was very badly damaged during the 1915 earthquake. Professor Antonio Bini is putting this forgotten colony of Danish artists in Abruzzo back on the map . He wrote the book “The Italian Dream of Kristian Zahrtmann”with documents and reflections, between the past and the present, so as not to forget Zahrtmann and the Scandinavian painters and to break the age long oblivion which wraps Civita d’Antino since the earthquake .
