EnglishThe paper examines the relationships between the description of some Lombard localities in Edith Wharton’s Italian Backgrounds (1905) and some episodes of rediscovery of works of art on Lake Como and in the pre-Alpine valleys . In particular, attention is focused on the parallel events of conservation of the artistic heritage between the publication of The Decoration of Houses (1897), the exhibition of sacred art at the Volta exhibition in Como (1899) and the preservation activity of Francesco Malaguzzi Valeri and Corrado Ricci. In addition, the essay examines the discovery of Renaissance painting in Valtellina (from Gaudenzio Ferrari to Cipriano Valorsa) by Bernard Berenson, hypothesizing that the American connoisseur may have been pushed on this research paths also thanks to Edith Warthon’s books and frequentation.

In particular, attention is focused on the parallel events of conservation of the artistic heritage between the publication of The Decoration of Houses (1897), the exhibition of sacred art at the Volta exhibition in Como (1899) and the preservation activity of Francesco Malaguzzi Valeri and Corrado Ricci.
