21 March 2018 Martin kindly wrote about Luigi Pericle :
He should have been appreciated as much as Paul Klee. Herbert Read the great Art Historian loved his work.
Pericle Luigi Giovanetti taught me how to take life seriously but still enjoy it. He bought an old Ferrari. The Ist day he admired it. The 2nd day he switched the engine on and listened and sat in the driving seat. Only on the 3rd day would he drive it. The enjoyment of anticipation !
Roberto Rossellini and Luigi Pericle were two owners of this legendary race car now in Muhluse’s City de L’automobile.
