The investigation of a nineteenth-century drawing relating to the bell tower facade of the Annunziata church in Paternò offers the opportunity to reconstruct the biography of the Polish architect Stefano Ittar, involved in the construction of the church since 1768. The contribution examines the methods of entry and of Ittar's affirmation on the Sicilian scene by evaluating the alleged declaration of "Romanity" that accompanies his professional figure starting from the documentary data, punctually denied by his architecture and his design choices. |
