Bridgeman proudly collaborated with the bestsellers book and cards series originated by the Italian Facebook phenomenon Se i quadri potessero parlare ( If only pictures could talk ) by Stefano Guerrera.
Bridgeman very happily supplied art images for licensing to the latest book version of Stefano Guerrera's Facebook page Se i quadri potessero parlare. We asked the author and the editorial team at Rizzoli-BUR to share their licensing experience with us.

How come you chose these particular images for your project? What is it you are trying to communicate?
“Se i quadri potessero parlare” is a project aiming to spread Art History knowledge in a fun way using social media. The image choices are based on the study of the facial expressions and gestures of the painting's subjects: I choose images that, tied with a certain caption, trigger the laughter due to the contrast between art images and text.

How did you find Bridgeman Images (Google, word of mouth, etc.. )?
Rizzoli, the publisher I collaborate with, suggested Bridgeman.

The excellent image quality, the sharp and vibrants colours, perfectly matched my desire to produce a high quality book that is as well fun and colourful.
