Fondazione Canova organizes a captivating reenactment, the night tour inside the Gypsotheca, during which it is possible to admire the great collection of works and sculptures illuminated only by lanterns, proceeding then to the birthplace to discover the pictorial masterpieces of the genius from Possagno.
An evening that will take you back in time, making you relive the atmosphere that Canova breathed at the end of the 18th century in his Roman studio, when, after a long day of work, by the light of torches and lanterns, the tireless artist modeled sketches and polished marbles.
An enchanting silence reigned at night in his atelier emptied of artists and collectors, where absolute masterpieces surrounded the intense work of the greatest neoclassical artist.
The program for the evening includes:
- Guided tour of Canova's birthplace
- Guided tour by lantern light in Gypsotheca
- At the end of the tour, all guests will be offered a sweet meringue
