Moses (c. 1513–1515) is a sculpture by the Italian High Renaissance artist Michelangelo Buonarroti, housed in the church of San Pietro in Vincoli in Rome.
Commissioned in 1505 by Pope Julius II for his tomb, it depicts the biblical figure Moses with horns on his head, based on a description in chapter 34 of Exodus in the Vulgate, the Latin translation of the Bible used at that time.
A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.

The National Roman Museum (Museo Nazionale Romano) in Rome is spread over several places, two of them being very close to each other and Rome's big railway station. This is one of them: the Baths of Diocletian.
Now these baths, the largest imperial baths from Antiquity, were not left alone in the middle of a big city like Rome (though due to a shrinking number of inhabitants it took surprisingly long), and by1562 a Carthusian church was being built in the ruins: Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri. They had a monastery, a charterhouse, adjoining the church, and it was in the hands of the order until 1870.
This cloister, which is a part of the charterhouse, had its layout most likely designed by Michelangelo (who got the task from the pope), though he probably didn't do more than that. It still got named after him. Michelangelo was actually dead by the time construction began, in 1565 - and it took the rest of the century to finish the cloister.
The cloister is actually where the Museo Nazionale Romano began its life in 1889 - but as the collection grew, so did the need for more space and several more locals were added. Now this museum is mostly home to epigraphy and funeral and religious statues.
This was my first time visiting and I am quite sad that I hadn't done so earlier - but then again, it's always nice to discover a new gem in a city you know very well. You might not find the most famous pieces of Roman art here, but there are some really interesting ones and it's great to see some stuff you might be less familiar with. And the place itself is well worth your time and a visit - it's not the most crowded museum you will come across either.

At the Royal Palace in Palermo, a statue of Christ sculpted by Michelangelo Buonarroti is on display. The great artist never finished the statue because it was marred by a strip of black marble across its face, barely visible to the layman, but it was enough for Michelangelo to abandon the sculpture. A magnificence of absolute perfection.

Ciao a tutti,
sto guardando alcune foto di Firenze,
spezzettando momenti in un tempo in cui cerco di sistemare cose per me importanti, che richiedono molto tempo.
Ma non posso fare a meno di ricordare tutto.
Michelangelo si respira dovunque, alla galleria dell’accademia col David, agli Uffizi nella sala 35 dove vi è posta la statua dell’Arianna dormiente.
Quel che vorrei raccontarvi, non sono i dati storici, che chiunque può trovare, ma le impressioni che si ricavano dalla visione, del David, ad esempio, ci sono molti visitatori all’accademia, persone che non si accontentano della copia del David messa di fronte a palazzo vecchio.
Per me è vera emozione trovarmi davanti al David, quello autentico, dove ogni particolare è perfetto, dalla mano che regge la fionda, alla mano abbandonata al lato del corpo, con le vene in rilievo, le unghie con le cuticole, lo sguardo e il suo volto.
Lo si può osservare da ogni angolazione, è molto grande, impressionante.
Intorno c’è sempre molta gente, restano a bocca aperta.
Michelangelo Buonarroti fu incaricato dall’opera del Duomo di fare questa statua.
. Nel gennaio del 1504 la statua era finita ed era riuscita così magnifica e straordinaria che fu deciso di riunire una commissione, di cui faceva parte anche Leonardo da Vinci, per decidere dove collocarla.
Fu così che i fiorentini decisero di mettere il David di Michelangelo davanti al Palazzo della Signoria, dove venne inaugurato l’8 settembre 1504 e dove rimase fino al luglio del 1873
E’ per questioni di mantenimento che fu spostato all’interno dell’accademia
In qualsiasi modo io lo guardo, trovo diversità da altri capolavori, si comprende la forza della furbizia nello sconfiggere un personaggio più grande e più forte.
La conseguenza del ragionamento.
Sembra di sentire l’orgoglio di aver portato a termine una missione.
Mancava da 220 anni dalla Galleria degli Uffizi, la statua dell' Arianna Addormentata Dopo aver a lungo viaggiato ed esser stata anche nei giardini del quirinale, è stata accolta nella Sala 35 del museo fiorentino, detta di Michelangelo, perché conserva al suo interno il famoso Tondo Doni.
Anche qui si vede un grande lavoro, l’impressionante cercare lo spirito all’interno di freddo marmo.
Liberare per così dire le figure.
Quel che si vede dentro agli imprigionati lasciati alla galleria dell’accademia, sono statue di Michelangelo ancora non terminate, ma all’interno di blocchi di marmo, chiamate per l’appunto gli imprigionati
Felice di rendervi partecipi.
Sono tornato alle cose di sempre, ma forse posterò ancora altro di Firenze.
Non dimentico nessuno, tutti hanno valore per me,
con pazienza...
