- Summary:
- From the 17th - 20th century, the "voyage to Rome" established itself as a source of infinite inspiration where prevails the connections to Antiquity artworks. The former capital of the Roman Empire exercised a powerful hand of seduction through its monuments such as the Coliseum, its nearby sites (Pompei, Herculaneum) and its art depicting ideal beauty, which was inherited from the Greeks.The exhibition addresses all the singularity of a city of contrasts and pleasures, to the light of the South: its different neighbourhoods, its palaces, galleries, restless life of the population, and even gastronomy which stroke new colours to Art in Europe. This catalogue summarizes through text and image this ambitious exhibition. Exhibition: La Boverie, Liège, Belgium (25.04.-26.08.2018).
