Book excerpt: "In Rome there is no guide, only one's curiosity about places, monuments and sculptures, as unveiled in this collection of watercolours by Fabrice Moireau. According to Dominique Fernandez, "one must leave it to chance and wander aimlessly", because pleasure "is found where least expected". With only their quill and brush, the author and illustrator capture the different faces of Rome-Ancient Rome, Imperial Rome, rome of the Baroque, as well as modern Rome -- and invite us to discover the masterpieces of this "eternal city"."--P [4] of cover
