The extraordinary personality of Frederick II of Swabia, king of Sicily, king of Jerusalem, emperor of the Romans, king of Italy and king of Germany finds ample space in the artistic representation of Domenico Pinto who has transformed the myth and the legend into precious plastic material of the multifaceted emperor. The world of the Swabian court, a meeting place between the Greek, Latin, Arab and Jewish cultures, is proposed in a modern way of interpreting through new forms, colors and details.
Among the many themes treated, all inspired by a coherent stylistic effectiveness and a subtle formal elegance, the female imaginary is widely represented with Jolanda di Brienne, Costanza d'Aragona, Costanza d'Altavilla, Isabella of England, Bianca Lancia, Beatrice of Antioch and Elena Comneno.
Even the male figures, often dressed in royal authority, participate in the exaggerated splendor of the thematic strand as seen in the iconographic representations of Pier delle Vigne, of Manfredi, of Maramonte Orlando, of Tommaso da Oria and of Frederick II of Swabia.
