Cultural Significance Sculpture Visual Arts

Michelangelo, David. This statue of David, cut from an 18-foothigh piece of marble, exalts the beauty of the human body and is a fitting symbol of the Italian Renaissance's affirmation of human power.

The Creation of Adam at the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel of the Vatican, painted by Michelangelo.

The Mona Lisa, by Leonardo da Vinci. He also painted The Last Supper.

Attractions

The Trevi Fountain or

Fontana di Trevi one of the; popular fountain in the world. I inspired by the movie, When in Rome where they fell in love in the fountain.

The Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre is an elliptical amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy. Constructed around 70 B.C.

The Gallery of Maps, it contains a series of painted topographical maps of Italy. I want to visit this museum because it gives knowledge and it’s relaxing to look at.
