For the French and Italian colleagues, or the experts of French and Italian traditional culture.
An italian colleague of mine is analysing some iconografic documents to complete a chapter of a book (on the representation of food). He is currently working on " Le jour des roses sur le toit [The Day of the roses on the roof]" of Martial Raysse. He asked me if "The Day of the Roses" is Italian "Easter of the Roses", that is to say the day of Pentecost.
Is anybody able to answer to his question? I didn’t find any information on the web concerning this “Day of the roses”…
Thank you!
Cheers!
