TESTIMONIALS
"I am very pleased that I met Diane Epstein, an original artist who knows how to link a profound, extraordinary technique with genuine inspiration. The results show that we are in front of an artist and personality who we can follow with confidence and admiration. Brava Diane!"
Lorenza Trucchi
Renowned Art Critic
"Many compliments to Diane on her most interesting and artistic work! The unique architectural details that she was able to capture, transformed by her photographic technique and the colors that she chose, creates a rare and unusual perspectives out of traditional vistas. The hidden view of St. Peter's between two columns seems taken from the inside, the dome of the Pantheon recalls the perspective play of Padre Pozzo, and the details of the statues at the Campidoglio, treated with an air of misty blue, creates a whole new story. But even the smaller works on paper -- of fruits and vegetables -- sequenced together, have a modern Renaissance flavor. May she continue to see this city with such distinctive eyes."
Rita Parma
Curator, Istituto National per la Grafica
"We both agree that Diane Epstein, without a doubt has come to a milestone in her photography, establishing a newfound originality which sets her apart. It is true that her images convey to the viewer a certain serenity and calm while at the same time evoking a melange of wonderfully curious pictures - the photographs speak of untold stories in secret places."
Jill Barnes-Dacey, Stefan Lennert
Artist, International Art Dealer
"I appreciate Diane's photographic works because they are between the dream of a textured image and reality. And then fate adds something you don't expect. Like the picture of the ever so subtle bicycle that lays against the statue of Babuino. Rome inspires Diane as she lives it with passion...
I like the sounds made of stone between the pre-historical silences of ancient Rome."
Luigi Boille, Nicole Boille
Painter / Artist
"Diane has truly perfected her technique to show Rome in the way she sees it-through many layers."
Jeannette Barron
Photographer
"These pictures will be a huge hit at the hotel Babuino, 181. Diane has come so far since I first saw her work years ago! Her photography continues to grow and become a more precise reflection of her view of Rome!"
James Barron
International Art Dealer
"The photography of Diane Epstein evokes not only the Rome you experience with your eyes, but the Rome you see in your dreams and feel beating in your heart of hearts. Her painterly use of texture and layering of multiple visual subtexts provide a fresh, appealing look at the iconic images of Rome. She hands you a Rome to take home, that with a glance carries you to the Eternal City."
