Vivoli’s engraving of Dante teaching the Commedia to
Florence is used as the logo to the international congresses
held in Florence, 2001, 2002, 2004, The City and the Book.
An artist from Norway has printed Bruno Vivoli’s engravings of the Madonna and Child at the Santa Reparata International School of Art, Via San Gallo, Florence.
Then Bruno engraved the Madonna of the Badia Giotto altarpiece now in the Uffizi, of which this is Number 10 of a numbered series of 50. Again, these sold for €50/$50, the proceeds of these prints initially going towards buying a printing press for the printing of engravings in the bottega of the Mediatheca 'Fioretta Mazzei'. Now proceeds go entirely to him.
