(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 16 - Art historian and polemicist Vittorio
Sgarbi became the mayor of his fourth ever Italian town in the
local elections Sunday and Monday, voted in as first citizen of
the hilltown near Frosinone south of Rome that produced Roman
orator and philosopher Ciceco and his near-contemporary the
Roman general Marius, Arpino (ancient Arpinum).
Ferrara-born Sgarbi, 71, a big TV personality and one of Italy's
foremost art critics and historians, had previously been mayor
of a San Severino Marche, in the province of Macerata in Marche,
then at Salemi near Trapani, and most recently at Sutri in the
province of Viterbo.
