A.M. DE AGOSTINI. EXPLORING PATAGONIA

From 16 to 25 / Theater Foyer / Free entrance

The Salesian father Alberto Maria De Agostini arrived at Tierra del Fuego at the end of 1909. Impregnated with a deep romantic spirit, besides his evangelizing work, due to the congregation, he devoted himself to the exploration of a quite wide Patagonia’s part and he documented it with photographs and cinema. The sample that we present is a small collection of photographs, belonging to the file of the National Mountain Museum of Turin.
