Renaissance at Palazzo Venezia

Palazzo Venezia is a symbolic place of the Roman Renaissance because of its architectural forms inspired by the work of Leon Battista Alberti, its sculptural and pictorial decorations, such as the frescoes in the Room of the Labors of Hercules, and the great historical figures who passed through its entrance. Participants will venture on a walk through the Rome of the time and learn about the atmosphere in the historic residence: the collecting passion of Pope Paul II, the popular carnival celebrations, the extraordinary library of Cardinal Domenico Grimani, and the visits of great intellectuals such as Pietro Bembo and Erasmus of Rotterdam.
