Pietro Barilla with the painter Mino Maccari in the library of the house in Fraore (PR) in 1982. The framed painting is "Group of peronaggi" from 1974 by Maccari himself. «I met him in Cinquale, where he had his studio. He was a multifaceted, complex personality: painter, journalist, he wrote on the "Selvaggio" and then on the "Mondo" with cartoons and sharp judgments on the "fauna" worldly cultural politics of the time. But he was also a man capable of great outbursts of human generosity towards simple people in a state of need".
