Mount Vesuvius looms in the distance, imbuing the Italian city of Naples with an electric charge just beneath the surface. Perhaps this proximity is why the Neapolitan people have an indescribable gusto that seeps into all corners of their lives, from cuisine to sport. And the waters of the Mediterranean balance the scales with a charming seaside spirit. The historic city has become synonymous with creative output such as Paolo Sorrentino’s film The Hand of God and Elena Ferrante’s beloved Neapolitan Novels. Through the pages of Napoli Amore, Cesare Cunaccia—a frequent Assouline contributor—guides the reader on an unforgettable journey of this one-of-a-kind destination.
The Neapolitan identity is so formidable that Naples is often considered distinct from Italy. This dynamic character, experienced in the streets, the craftsmanship, and the Mediterranean spirit, is on full display in Napoli Amore. In the pages of this book, images by iconic photographers (Herbert List, Mimmo Jodice, Ferdinando Scianna) stand in conversation with those of more contemporary photographers (Sam Gregg, Ciro Pipoli, Brett Lloyd) to paint a portrait of Naples that is as layered as a sfogliatella and as compelling as a Caravaggio.

About Assouline
We created this company to be the first luxury brand on culture. We wanted to supply everything for a contemporary library; we started working with top perfumers for scented candles, with Goyard for a book trunk, with Chanel on a quilted leather slipcase, and so on. Now we are expanding the Assouline lifestyle brand in stores in the most important cities of the world. We love and believe in books more than everything else, but we also want to extend our vision to create all that can be expected in a chic and personalized library, from beautiful books and special editions to luxury gift items, unique library accessories, and now a complete turnkey collection of stylish furniture. Our digital world goes faster than ever and nothing remains of it, but books are a solid part of our past and present. They are also beautiful. For us, books are a matter of intellect and emotion; heritage and innovation. Information is not only about today, and the past is a sensational source of inspiration.
