The Farnese Bridge, an unfinished dream that Michelangelo had imagined in the 16th century, became reality near Ponte Sisto, over the Tiber River, in Rome.
The work that was never completed is revived today – albeit temporarily – by the hands of French artist Olivier Grossetête.
The bridge was commissioned from Michelangelo Buonarroti by the then Pope Paul III Farnese, to connect the Palazzo Farnese with the gardens of the current Villa Farnesina, on the other bank of the Tiber.
The work, created by Grossetete, has the format of a “flying bridge” entirely made of cardboard, 18 meters long and suspended in the air, with the help of three large balloons.
The Supreme Court reaffirmed: citizenship is born with the person.
- New legal front opened
- Processes can still be filed.
- Individual assessment before any decision.
A true masterpiece destined to make the Roman sky magical for a short period of time. The bridge will, in fact, be visible until July 18th.
