Antonella Cappuccio presented the Award with a graphic evolution of the ‘Timeless Woman’.

The Timeless Woman by Antonella Cappuccio, from a physiognomic point of view, evokes the Madonnas of Luca Della Robbia, an artist present in the Casentino area in the province of Arezzo. She evokes them in her figure, expression and physical features.

The woman’s face offers a glimpse of timeless situations, reminiscent of Italian women, women for all seasons, from the 1400s to the present day, with that trait of nobility and spirituality that distinguishes them. The female writing that we intend to collect will also bear witness to strong emotional values.

There is a moral need to nourish ourselves and our readers with values, feelings and hopes.
