Il cavaliere blu, storia di un colore

Cast out by Greeks and Romans, the BLUE colour, represented by a knight,rides through History chasing his rival colours: Black and Red. He crosses the
sea, paints the Giotto skies, the BLUE Ravenna mosaics and the Faenza ceramics, until he passes his rival colours by becoming the Prussian BLUE in the Hokusai’s and Van Gogh’s palette. He will finally transform into Jurij
Gagarin, the first Russian astronaut, that while communicating with ground control, said: “The Earth is BLUE. How wonderful”.
