Painting

Gastone Novelli was born in 1925 in Vienna. In 1943, at the age of only 18, he took part in the Resistance, was arrested, imprisoned and tortured. Sentenced to death, his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment thanks to his mother's intervention and he was freed when the Allied troops entered Rome on 4 June 1944.
