520 _aAmore nell'arte by Iginio Ugo Tarchetti is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. It probes the knot between love and art, setting lofty ideals against bodily desire and social convention. The first tale centers on the gifted musician Lorenzo Alviati, whose pursuit of the beautiful—and of impossible, purified love—pushes him and those around him toward suffering and obsession. The opening of the collection recounts the narrator’s school-days friendship with the striking Lorenzo in Valenza, set against vivid scenes of the Po valley. Years later they reunite, and Lorenzo confesses that art has eclipsed earthly love; he relates his disillusioning affair with Regina and his tender bond with the ailing Adalgisa, whose waning life awakens in him a rare, idealized devotion. Through letters, the narrator then charts Lorenzo’s descent: unable to unite ideal beauty with the body, he transfers desire to pure forms (the Venus de’ Medici) and slides into ruinous self-absorption and madness. The section concludes as a new tale, Riccardo Waitzen, begins with an epigraph and questions about imagination and the blurred line between fantasy and reality.
