MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!

And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
Luke2, 15-17

“Quando gli angeli se ne furono andati verso il cielo, i pastori dicevano tra di loro: «Andiamo fino a Betlemme e vediamo ciò che è avvenuto, e che il Signore ci ha fatto sapere». Andarono in fretta, e trovarono Maria e Giuseppe e il bambino, adagiato nella mangiatoia; e, vedutolo, divulgarono quello che era stato loro detto di quel bambino…”
Luca, 2, 15-17

Un augurio di Buon Natale a tutti!

Today Ca' Pesaro re-opens to the public!

Venice has often been a favorite subject for painters, and many artworks in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in Ca’ Pesaro depict the floating city. Yet, every artist sees Venice in a different way: here are the “portraits of Venice” selected by one of our Erika Cornali for our blog:

“Water is fluid, soft, and yielding. But water will wear away rock, which is rigid and cannot yield.” These wise words by Lao Tzu remind me how water can erode and shape the landascape, softly, drop by drop, or with the force and power of storms and floods. And, like an artist, it enchants us with its work of arts. A series of caves and waterfalls alongside the river Caglieron offers us an unfogettable experience: a simple and safe walk trail takes you through the deep gorge. Part of the caves is natural, part has been excavated by men to extract the sandstone for jambs and lintels, whci we can see in many houses and palaces of the place. At the end of the pathway, you will find two old mills and a small borough, before getting back to the main road.
The Caglieron Caves are situated in Fregona, a village in the Province of Treviso – Veneto Region.
