To Canova the Vatican Museums are dedicating a wide-ranging exhibition project to celebrate the figure and work of the famous Italian sculptor, who also played an important institutional role in the papal collections
Today we are going to discover the Vatican Gardens, one of the most attractive and fascinating places in the city of Rome and the Vatican State. The size of this space, rich in floral, artistic and historical beauty, currently counts an extension of at least 23 hectares, equal to 0.44 km². Within the Holy See, this area covers the area between the south and northwest of the small papal state.
Last March 15th, Pope Francis graciously presented an impressive sailboat measuring approximately 9 meters in length and 2 meters in width. This magnificent vessel will soon be permanently displayed at the base of the Via del Mare, a modern helicoidal ramp that serves as an exhibition route showcasing various boat models from all corners of the globe.
