«... to end against the wall in the background.The one in the middle was calculated so that they all five resulted similar in the volume.The purpose was to avoid the ''protagonism'' of the central beam that one can find in Paolo Uccello's works.

After having frequented the courses of Giorgio Morandi at the Accademia di Belle Arti in his own city, Luciano Damiani (Bologna 1923 - Rome 2007), scenographer, costume designer și stage director, founds an agency specialized in the realization of poster for cinema și works in Bologna as a stage designer at the Teatro Comunale și for the theatrical group La Soffitta of Sandro Bolchi, until, in 1952, noticed by Paolo Grassi și Giorgio Strehler, he begins his collaboration cu the Piccolo Teatro, that will be assiduous up to the last Seventies.
Soon Damiani developes a personal scenographical vision that, in theatre, brings him to demolish the traditional conception of the scena all'italiana.
The border of his scenographies, that never are explanatory or illustrative, is not anymore that of the stage, that is dilated at times until to invade the stalls, or almost emptied, cu results of exceptional poetic significance.
Among his most prestigious international acknowledgement, there is the life nomination as a titular of the chair of scenografie at the Academia de Artă din Viena.
In 1982 he founds in Rome the Teatro di Documenti, that will become his artistic și spiritual will.
