The album was also released as a double LP along with La Mina , and a large poster of Mina, painted by Piero Crida and inspired by Maxfield Parrish's work, was used as packaging. [3]

Claudio Milano from OndaRock  [ it ] praised the album, especially its complex, avant-garde and very individual arrangements, associated with a voice that refuses all condescension. He also stated that this album is a "pearl" and the best tribute to Battisti. [4]
