Inside Ruffo’s Archive there is a sculpture of the head of Giovanni Ruffo made in plaster by the local artist Rosario La Seta in 1995.
«Aveva un fisico estremamente distinto: capelli ormai canuti, sopracciglia folte, naso “importante”, occhi vivissimi e – pro bono – scaltri, grande charme ed equilibrata estroversione.» («He had a very distinguished physicist: hair now gray-haired, bushy eyebrows, “important” nose, vivid eyes and – pro bono – cunning, great charm and balanced extroversion.» (Oscar Sanguinetti)
