Wholesale Traits of the Mediterranean

Fabrizio Foti is an artist architect who loves to draw and paint, especially Sicilian subjects. I have known and appreciated his drawings on Sicilian aquatic life for years. For this book he chose 34 varieties of fish, his favorites, the ones that most fascinated him for their beauty, for their colors, for the way in which the light is reflected on the shades of their scales, for the depth of the sea that shines in their eyes, caught in the markets throughout Sicily.
