Michelangelo’s Moses in the church of St Peter in chains in Rome
Why “in chains”🔗? ⤵️ This is the church of San Pietro in Vincoli (in English: Saint Peter in Chains) Below the altar you will find the very chains that held Saint Peter prisoner! But what makes this church even more special is the monument right next to the altar: the Moses of Michelangelo. We are simply entering inside the church and we're in front of a Michelangelo sculpture. How incredible is that? 🤩 ⤵️ Want to discover more of Rome with us? • Go to our link in bio!
A hidden gem near Trevi Fountain
What’s this place? ⤵️ The Galleria is an internal courtyard of Palazzo Sciarra, a noble family palace from the 1500s. This is one of the most photogenic corners of Rome in liberty style that was going around at the end of the 1800s. It has a sort of a British look. This Gallery was a celebration of the typical role model of a woman at the end of the 1800s. On these walls you can see the virtues that a typical role model of a woman in the 1800s should have had: "Pudica", she should have been pudic; "Sobria", sober. She should have been good at gardening, taking care of the house and also being a loving daughter. (Anything else? 😜)
