**Some History**
Atrani and Amalfi are almost two indistinguishable entities, yet, even though they are so close to each other, they are quite different.

Especially in size.... as Atrani, is 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐲 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 (!).

Though it is part of the Amalfi Coast, it is the only town along the coast to preserve intact its antique, traditional characteristics.

The origins of Atrani are still unknown. Archeological research discovered ruins remaining from the 1st century AD. Roman villas existed along the Amalfi Coast and were covered in debris from the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD.

The Duchy of Amalfi extended from Positano to Cetara. Within this territory Atrani was a village that boasted the title of city, the twin city of Amalfi was seat of the aristocracy.
Its inhabitants preserved their identity as Atranese (from Atrani), unlike all the other inhabitants of the duchy, who were merely called Amalfitani.

In the second half of 1100, Manfredi punished Atrani for siding in favour of the pope in the struggle between the papacy and the empire and sent 1000 Alexandrian sailors against Atrani. The inhabitants of Atrani fled to Amalfi, and the mercenaries settled in the village, and would be many years before they abandoned it. The departure of the mercenaries is attributed to the intercession of St. Mary Magdalene. Small traces of the occupation still remain today, in the cadence of the local dialect and a handful of words.

𝐌. 𝐂. 𝐄𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫's first depiction of Atrani was his early and realistic work Atrani, Coast of Amalfi, a lithograph first printed in August 1931. Although that work is relatively unknown, the image of Atrani recurs several times in Escher's work, most notably in his much more famous series of Metamorphosis prints: Metamorphosis I, II and III.
