Anthony Hopkins has a friend over for dinner. Luckily, in the video he showed to his three million-odd followers on Instagram, he’s not boiling a human heart but a normal tomato sauce. And on the other hand it is located in Rome: the bucatini are a faith. The actor is just one of the great returns of this summer: there is a lot of Italy in the photos of actresses and singers, actors and international starlets.

As a powerful and non-rhetorical reminder: Adelphi has just published Images of Italy by Pavel Muratov, a book that when it came out in the early twentieth century gave birth to a sort of Italomania precisely because it described our country as endowed with a living, human beauty. Thus, in the photo in which he mixes the sauce, Hopkins writes When in Rome knowing full well that the ruins of the Colosseum are not needed to tell the city: it is also evoked with perfumes or gestures.

Kim Kardashian, with the usual sobriety, shadows the Spanish Steps beautifully ignoring the fountain of the Barcaccia dei Bernini: yes, for many of them we are a magnificent theater to reproduce on Instagram. At least Gwyneth Paltrow (accompanied by her husband Brad Falchuk) in the photo she left the right space to show one of our most beautiful natural spectacles: the sunset on the Ponte Vecchio in Florence. Ed Westwick (the Chuck Bass in the series Gossip Girl) incomprehensible: either you take pictures sitting at anonymous bar tables or you take a selfie in a bathrobe so bulky that it even obscures the horizon of Capri – and to shade Capri you need some.

Katy Perry pervaded by pious illusion: do you really think that a short yellow dress is enough to make you forget the beauty of the canals of Venice behind you? What if Helen Mirren now Salento by adoption and acclamation (after the success of the single La Vacinada in the duet with Checco Zalone), Bono Vox, soul of U2, has chosen Liguria: the Gazzetta della Spezia says that he showed up for dinner in an inn without a reservation and that at the end he left thanks written on the napkin.

Low profile also for Penelope Cruz e Javier Bardem, in Sardinia, and for Harry Styles e Olivia Wilde, photographed (let’s get vaccinated from the word paparazzati) on the island of Giglio, Tuscany. The real thermometer of the return to Italy for, we know, on Lake Como: and finally they have reappeared George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin. Selfie for everyone in the restaurant, he amused as always, she stiffer but beautiful, in black and with hair miraculously impermeable to the wetness of the lake. Robert Downey Jrfinally, he greeted all the fans from lovely Umbria and we ask some questions: if Anthony Hopkins, before going to Rome, had published a photo under the Tuscan sun when in reality he was in Umbria, the handsome Robert would have really been in that of Perugia or where? After all, however, it is not so important: on Instagram, everything is valid.
