Live like me and you'll be happy

Luigi Lupo, Amalia Oleastro

Beschreibung

Preface by Paola Severini Melograni
Translation into English by Ferruccio Bruno
I always thought about my son as a delicate flower that needs to be loved, protected and cared for, and that's what I intend to do as long as I'm breathing. But I also know this is not enough. A flower, tenacious as it may be, could hardly survive on its own. The wind will batter it, dispersing its petals. The heat will wither it and the chill of the night will freeze-burn it. Eventually, weed will choke it out. If, on the other hand, it grows surrounded by other flowers, different in form and colours, its beauty and fragrance would be enhanced by their presence. Not only that; its flower friends will form a barrier around it, preventing weeds and inclemencies from withering it. That's the purpose of this book: to encourage those who, like me, have the future of these “special children” at heart, so that a flowerbed of solidarity may blossom around them, helping them to face the hardest challenges of life.

Hans Memling

Alfred Michiels

Little is known of Memling’s life. It is surmised that he was a German by descent but the definite fact of his life is that he painted at Bruges, sharing with the van Eycks, who had also worked in that city, the honour of being the leading artists of the so-called ‘School of Bruges’. He carried on their method of painting, and added to it a quality of gentle sentiment. In his case, as in theirs, Flemish art, founded upon local conditions and embodying purely local ideals, reached its fullest expression.
