In 1993, Heidi Thompson, a Vernon photographer, suggested that Sveva’s Recapitulation series be published in a book. For ten years, Heidi had been photographing Sveva’s paintings as they were completed. Sveva agreed to the project. However, she did not live to see the book finished. Recapitulation: A Journey by Sveva Caetani was published in 1995. Sveva died in April, 1994. She was 76. She was buried beside her father, her mother, and Miss Juul in the Caetani family plot in Vernon. |

It is fitting that Sveva Caetani could play the fairy godmother at the end of her own exceptional life. She gave to others those things she valued most: her love and respect to the memory of her parents, her knowledge and support to her students and friends, her vivid paintings to the people of Canada, and her cherished home to the city of Vernon. |
