"È necessario un grande sforzo di ricerca per capire i molti risvolti della personalità e dell'azione di papa Benedetto XV Spesso la sua figura ha rischiato di venire quasi compressa e quasi trasformata in una semplice premessa a quella frase memorabile, lapidaria al pari di un giudizio profetico, della Prima guerra mondiale come «inutile strage», riducendo la sua azione a un puro contorno a quell'atto. Mi guardo bene dal sottovalutarlo, ma credo che esso trovi il suo senso profondo in una disamina più ampia della sua vicenda." (Dall'Introduzione di Alberto Melloni)

Giovanni in Persiceto, Edizioni Aspasia 1994, Litografia (P. di A.) in colore, firmata, di cm 27 x 42,5 più piccoli margini, dell'Artista bolognese, pittore e illustratore di libri e racconti. Nel paesaggio della nosta pianura emiliana atterrano giganteschi piatti di tortellini fumanti ... E il fumo, e il profumo, che si spargono nel cielo, si confondono con le nubi, anzi le creano e le trasformano. Accanto ai piatti vi sono delle posate altrettanto giganti, degne di un pasto pantagruelico ... "Sono arrivati prima a Modena!" - "Non è vero! E' a Ferrara che..." - "A Bologna, é indiscutibile!". Carpetta in folio con litografia ed uno scritto di Graziano Campanini Buono (Good) . <br> <br> <br>
