Extent

The analogic fond includes more than 80.000 documents, namely books, pamphlets, handwritten letters, administrative papers and photographs collected by Corrado Ricci (1858-1934).

Description

The collection consists in the digitized reproduction of part of the wide analogic archive stored in the Classense Library, in the so-called Ricci Halls. It consists of a large number of pictures depicting Ravenna and its historical monuments. The good conservative condition of this archive, in particular of the correspondence section, is connected to the role of Superintendent, that Corrado Ricci performed from 1897, as the first Italian municipal officer in charge of the cultural heritage prevention monuments. The collection depicts and witnesses the several restoration interventionscarried out from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of 20th century on Ravenna monuments, whose aim was to take back Byzantine architectures to their original aspect.

History

Personal archive donated by Corrado Ricci to the Classense Library in 1934.
