Castel Sant’Angelo is one of the monuments that identifies the history of the Eternal City the most.

It was originally commissioned as a “Mausoleum for Emperor Hadrian“, which he had built for himself and his successors. Over the centuries, the building has undergone many transformations: it is a Roman custom to use buildings for different purposes.
The popes converted the structure into a luxurious and well protected residence. In fact, this monument was property of the State of the Vatican City and was connected with it through a secret underground passageway. In the 5th century, it was once again converted into a fortress to defend Rome and included a prison.
The Castle got its name in 590 A.D. when Rome was hit by the plague.Pope Gregory I was said to have had a vision of an angel sheathing his sword atop the Castle as a sign of the end of the plague. The prison of Castel Sant’Angelo is the setting for the last act of Giacomo Puccini’s Tosca. The splendid Castle is open to the public to relive the memories of this magnificent building.

Rome’s Palazzo delle Esposizioni is dedicating an important tribute to the great Italian master, founder of the school of Metaphysical Art.
The exhibit is offering an original opportunity to become familiar with his art by admiring his masterpieces through the painter’s view of the world of Nature.
De Chirico was born in 1888 in Volos, the heart of Classical Greece, to Italian parents. He dedicated his entire life to the poetic exploration of an art aimed at making the enigmatic quality of reality emerge.
The purpose of the “La Natura secondo de Chirico” exhibit in Rome is to present an occasion for a new critical élan, a re-reading of works by the 20th–century master through the central theme of his poetics. The idea of Nature remains a constant reference: whether it is being idealized (as in his mythological landscapes) or it is being rejected (as in the emotionless geometries of his mannequins).
The exhibit is edited by distinguished art critic Achille Bonito Oliva and features 120 paintings from the most illustrious public and private collections, arranged in a rich and evocative itinerary in the galleries alongside Rome’s monumental Rotonda di Palazzo delle Esposizioni.

Starting from March 13 until September 5 2010, the Capitoline Museums will host a major exhibition of masterpieces of ancient art from the major European museums.
The exhibition is divided into four parts and is spread over three floors of the museum. Through the vision of imposing marble statues, fine works in bronze and terracotta sculptures entire cycles, ornaments and home decor items made of bronze and silver, the highest value style will be told a time of profound change in the canons and the stylistic aesthetic taste of ancient Rome. A time when Greek influence became predominant to involve fully the cultural world of the Roman Empire.
The Age of conquest begins from the time of formation of the Roman Empire, when Rome gradually expanded its control throughout the Mediterranean basin, from Spain to the coasts of Asia Minor. This period saw the formation of a purely Roman figurative language, which capitalizes on the entire Greek artistic culture, which in time is received, absorbed and modified.

Rome will host, at the Museo del Vittoriano, from 6 March until 29 June 2010, an important exhibition entitled “Corot, Monet, Sisley and Pissarro”.
Nature is the protagonist. There will be on display more or less 150 works including paintings, drawings on paper and vintage photographs of the most famous artists of the artistic movement born in France in the second half of the nineteenth century, all linked to the theme of the evolution of the representation of nature throughout the Impressionism.
Nature protagonist is produced in collaboration with prestigious private collections and with major museums around the world who have helped to bring about a striking thematic route starting from the artists of the Barbizon School, which abandon the classical and picturesque representation of nature to depict a more wild landscape, up to the new language with which the Impressionists, from about 1870, depict the landscape, trying to integrate nature and industry, city and country.
