Die Fresken der Europakapelle von Karl Plattner (The Frescoes of the Europe Chapel)

Story

In the mid-1960s, at the high mountain pass connecting Italy and Austria, a chapel was commissioned to symbolize European unity following the scars of World War II.

Maker / Origin

Karl Plattner (1919–1986) was one of the most influential South Tyrolean artists of the 20th century, known for his ability to bridge the gap between Northern European precision and Italian emotionality.

Condition & Value

The cover shows minor shelf wear and a slight softening of the corners, which is typical for a softcover or dust-jacketed art book of this age. The spine appears strong and the colors remain vibrant. Excellent internal condition would keep it at the higher end of the estimate.
