Opis: Naples - Massimo Listri

Follow a Bourbon descendant to discover the history, culture, and beauty of Naples through the city’s most prestigious palaces, private villas, and hidden cultural gems.

Beneath the shadow of Vesuvius, Naples reveals itself as a city of contrasts—divine and earthly, radiant and somber, exuberant and restrained. In this richly illustrated volume, Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice of Bourbon Two Sicilies invites readers to rediscover her ancestral city through a narrative that blends history, art, and personal reflection. From its volcanic origins and classical legends to its enduring faith and ritual life, Naples emerges as a place where the sacred and the everyday coexist in a rare harmony. The reader moves through cloisters and chapels, palaces and gardens, witnessing the city’s transformation through centuries of triumph and loss. Its shadows, catacombs, and ruined splendor reveal a civilization that has faced catastrophe and renewal with grace and resilience.

Through revolutions and restorations, the city has retained a singular vitality—its identity shaped by the Bourbon legacy, yet always reinventing itself with the rhythm of the sea and the fire of the mountain.
