Tired of new #oracles?
50km from Rome there is the largest and most important architectural complex in ancient Italy: the #Sanctuary of the #Goddess #Fortune, built in the 2nd century BC. and probably following the #Hellenistic influence with its particular construction of artificial terraces.

Numerous artifacts have been found to testify that in these terraces there were shops that sold #votive offerings and #amulets.

According to some scholars, the origin of the Sanctuary could be older enough to date it around the IV century BC. built by citizens, enriched by the war against Sulla, to #ingratiate #CaioMario.

A kid representing #Jupiter the Child was lowered into a well and had the task of delivering the offerings to the oracle inside it with the requests of the #prophesy.

Inside the today-museum, among numerous wonderful artifacts, found in what remains of the sanctuary, you can admire the marble head of the Fortune Goddess found inside the well of the Hemicycle Terrace. If she is not able to influence #Fate at least you made an incredible journey in human #magic and #mysterious past.

If you're wondering what to find besides #Raphaels #Caravaggios, #elGrecos and #Berninis and the most famous masterpieces inside this art gallery I might surprise you as I could surprise my lovely guests with a #romantic #PrivateTour in
#PalazzoBarberini yesterday.
What you're looking at it's a painting of 1625 circa. We are still searching for its author but the confidential look of the young beautiful boy, probably a #cardSharper charms everyone.

The #Pyramid is the monumental tomb of #GaiusCestius, politician and member of the religious corporation of the Septemviri Epulonum, that were responsible of public banquets.
On the pyramid we can read a #LatinInscription where Cestius required his #heirs to erect the #funeralMonument within 330 days, otherwise they would lose the #wealthy inheritance! It was completed between 18 and 12 BC.

#Bagnaia became the summer residence of bishops and cardinals from the #Renaissance on, churchmen and high prelates often came to this little town to relax and take some rest. Raffaele Riario, the cardinal nephew of the powerful Pope Sixtus IV) had already transformed the wood into a hunting preserve. In the late 16th century, Cardinal Francesco De Gambara decided to create a wonderful #villa with #gardens and #fountains in a big holm hoak wood. The architect Jacopo Barozzi and Tommaso Ghinucci, a hydraulic engineer who also worked at Tivoli's Villa d'Este designed the buildings, the gardens and their fountains. The complex is named after the Lante Della Rovere family, who held the villa from the mid-seventeenth century until the 1930's.

The grape harvest started in the region of #Rome: #Latium
We call it "vendemmia" and it's hard work, socializing and partying. Since we are not part of the business today we are allowed to work a bit to socialize and to enjoy the party.
This year we celebrate with one of the #excellences of our region: the #winemaker #Trebotti, the first #wineProducer with CO2 emission.
The area were they produced is called #Tuscia and it's more precisely the #Teverina. Look at my FB for more photos and infos!!!

The #PortaSanPaolo is one of the southern gates of the #AurelianWalls in #Rome, and is among the most impressive and best preserved of the original gates of the entire city walls. There were originally, to the east and west of the Pyramid of Cestius, two gates to Via #Ostiense. The duplication of the road axis and therefore of the urban entrances had been made necessary by the intensity of traffic between Rome and the port of #Ostia. The real Via Ostiense led towards the granaries of the "Marmorata" along the banks of the Tiber.

The gate was isolated from the walls after the unity of Italy to build a modern capital and have wide roads arriving to the heart of Rome

Today inside you can find one of our #freeMuseums of Rome which absolutely not to miss!

We are in the #Barberini #Palace, one of the most precious buildings of the #eternalCity. Build by the #Pope #UrbanVIII for his family and were an amazing collection found home.
Still today we can appreciate inside works by Raphael, Tiziano, Caravaggio, Guido Reni, Tintoretto among others.

The #painting in the picture is enclosed in a richly ornamented stucco frame at the center of a room ceiling and it's work of 17th century by the painter Urbano Romanelli.

The room is part of a palace wing, commissioned by Cardinal #FrancescoBarberini having as subjects episodes from Greek mythology.

#Theseus is in fact the symbol of #Prudence. #Ariadne gave Theseus, already destined prey of Minotaur, the ball of thread by which he was able to get out of the #labyrinth after winning that monster. Ariadne fled with Theseus who then abandoned on a rock on the island of Naxos. There she bitterly wept for her misfortune and she then became #priestess of #Bacchus who gave her a golden crown, a masterpiece of Vulcan.
The #fresco is very damaged but still presents with all its characteristic symbols: the #Minotaur, at the bottom left, the #thread between Ariadne's fingers and the golden Crown placed on her head.

This is one of the #wonders of #Rome: #TrajanColumn.
Trajan is the first #emperor not born in Italy but in Spain.
He expanded the borders of the #empire like nobody else. Having served young in the province of Syria had as military #Ingenieur #ApollodorusOfDamascus that probably designed everything was build under this emperor.
Spiraling around the column like a modern-day comic strip is a narrative of the #DacianWars: 2,662 figures in 155 scenes, intricately carved into the structure.
Trajan appears in 58 of them and his ashes were originally at the base of the #column while at the top it must have been a statue of his. The column is hollow, composed of 29 blocks of #CarraraMarble and inside there is carved a #spiralStaircase.
At the top today a statue of #SanPeter with the keys of Rome and of the paradise.
