Book of guests in Esperanto. Fritz Mader, climber & writer, first told Bicknell about the rock engravings. Clarence wrote a page about each visitor & decorated the page with a botanical drawing, often developing the guest's initial into a monogram. bit.ly/3csPxK1

104 years ago, 17 July 1918, in Casterino, Luigi Pollini carried Clarence Bicknell out onto the terrace of his ‘cottage’ where he died peacefully, in the surroundings which he loved. Read his tribute clarencebicknell.com/luigi-pollini-…
