Italian term

attualmente in fase di incremento

Italian to English Art/Literary Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting panels for municipal art
Context: Di estremo interesse, infine, un nucleo attualmente in fase di incremento che è rappresentativo della fortuna goduta da Terni e dal territorio limitrofo tra i colti viandanti italiani e stranieri del Grand Tour e tra i pittori di paesaggio del Sette-Ottocento, ad esempio il francese Camille Corot. La cospicua serie di incisioni dedicate alla Cascata delle Marmore si possono ammirare nella collezione di disegni e grafica aperta al pubblico (sala 12).

The historical present commonly used in Italian needs to be transformed into the unmarked narrative of English, otherwise the text becomes stilted and not at all natural in standard English usage
