San Rocco. Rocco di Montpellier, universalmente noto come san Rocco (Montpellier, 1346/1350 – Voghera, notte tra il 15 e il 16 agosto 1376/1379), è stato un pellegrino e taumaturgo francese; è venerato come santo dalla Chiesa cattolica ed è patrono di numerose città e paesi.
È il santo più invocato, dal Medioevo in poi, come protettore dal terribile flagello della peste, e la sua popolarità è tuttora ampiamente diffusa. Il suo patronato si è progressivamente esteso al mondo contadino, agli animali, alle grandi catastrofi come i terremoti, alle epidemie e malattie gravissime; in senso più moderno, è un grande esempio di solidarietà umana e di carità cristiana, nel segno del volontariato. Con il passare dei secoli è divenuto uno dei santi più conosciuti nel continente europeo e oltreoceano, ma è rimasto anche uno dei più misteriosi.[1] La vita[modifica | modifica wikitesto] Ca d’Oro / Galleria Giorgio Franchetti Venetië. Ca d’Oro wordt doorgaans beschouwd als het mooiste laatgotische gebouw van Venetië.
Marino Contarini was opdrachtgever van het tussen 1421 en 1436 gebouwde stadspaleis aan het Canal Grande. Hij nam daarvoor de bouwmeesters Matteo Raverti en Bartolomeo Bon in dienst. De façade aan de Canal Grande is rijkelijk gedecoreerd met onder meer marmeren beeldhouwwerken, marmeren tracering en filigraan metselwerk. De sierlijke woning dankt zijn naam, het Gouden Huis, aan het ooit vergulde maaswerk. Francesco Pianta alla Scuola Grande di San Rocco. Alilaguna. Guggenheim. PEGGY Guggenheim was born in New York on 26 August 1898, the daughter of Benjamin Guggenheim and Florette Seligman.
Benjamin Guggenheim was one of seven brothers who, with their father, Meyer (of Swiss origin), created a family fortune in the late 19th century from the mining and smelting of metals, especially silver, copper and lead. The Seligmans were a leading banking family. Peggy grew up in New York. In April 1912 her father died heroically on the SS Titanic. In 1921 Peggy traveled to Europe. In 1939 Peggy conceived “the idea of opening a modern museum in London,” with her friend Herbert Read as its director. In October 1942 Peggy opened her museum/gallery Art of This Century.
Pollock and the other artists were among the pioneers of American Abstract Expressionism. In 1947 Peggy decided to return in Europe, where her collection was shown for the first time at the 1948 Venice Biennale, in the Greek pavilion. Venice - The Gondola. The gondola is the only boat in the world which, being just 11 metres long and weighing more than 600 kilograms, can be steered with agility and easyness by just one person and with only one oar and it has become, for millions of tourists, the very symbol of Venice.
It is unique, just like the town that it represents, Venice in Italy, also for its constructive characteristiques. First of all it the gondola is asymmetrical, as its left side is larger than the right one for 24 cm and so it always sails tilted on one side. The keel, thus, is not straight but it bends to the right, so that the gondola floats particularly tilted on the right-hand side. That allows the counterbalancing of the push of the only oar which would tend to carry it to the left side. Tickets St Marks Basilica Venice Italy.
