 1932 Vincenzo Fasolo (1885/1969)

“He started his career as an architect in the beginning of the first decade of the twentieth century, when the Roman architectural scene, away from the radical innovations proposed by the historical avant-garde and characterized by professional classicism as well as stately monumentality, tried some updating in a 'romantic' reinterpretation of traditional styling: in terms of vitality, spontaneity, individuality in the imitation of academic models, or in terms of a wider range of models even to include the homely style of 'minor architectures' or the glorification of ‘ruinism’ and anything picturesque” (Antonino Terranova - Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani Treccani)

Alberto Cadlolo was a second lieutenant of infantry who died heroically in 1918 during the First World War. In the entrance hall of the school there is his bust
