This volume, titled L’arredo sacro e profano. L’arte del Settecento emiliano. La Raccolta Zambeccari, accompanies the 1979 exhibition focused on eighteenth-century Emilian art and décor, housed in the Zambeccari Collection. It explores the dual realms of sacred and secular furnishing, linking ecclesiastical art, private patronage and the stylistic language of the Enlightenment in Emilia-Romagna. Rich in photographic plates and scholarly essays, it illustrates how altars, cabinet furniture, carved woodwork, paintings and interior decor reflect broader themes such as taste, religious devotion, collecting practices, and regional identity. By placing ornate baroque‐rococo works within their social and cultural milieu, the book provides both a museum-catalogue and a critical resource in the study of 18th-century Italian decorative arts.
