From the Colophon page: "This book is dedicated to the mosaic floor of the Basilica of San Marco in Venice. The most beautiful capet in the world. By having part of the book in the water like the floor of the Basilica, we want to make people think of the beauty of this incredible work of art, which is going to be destroyed and will disappear.”


Mario Teleri Biason is regarded as one of Italy’s foremost experts in printmaking relating to both antique and contemporary prints. He is called regularly by the Instituto Nazionale per la Grafica -Calcografia and the Cabinet of prints and drawings in Rome and other organizations as an expert and consultantant in the field.

In 1990 he received a gold medal for graphics at the IX Roman “Vito Agresti” Prize for the Figurative Arts. He was the Curator of the exhibition “Creativita’e tecnica nell’incisione” at Palazzo Venezia Rome, “Prospettive” at Biblioteca Casanatense, Rome, and “Printmaking is forever” at the Indiana University, Bloomington.
