Franco Zeffirelli

One of the greatest artists and prides of our country is the unforgettable director and author of plays and films, Franco Zeffirelli. He is also a universally beloved director and scenographer of productions that have made history at La Scala (such as his timeless and much admired Bohème). Zeffirelli honoured Amici della Scala with his presence, also as an Honorary Member, and a wonderful book was dedicated to him. In the photograph, Zeffirelli is with Giulietta Simionato. The images show one of his signed notes, along with a sketch also signed by Zeffirelli.
