Throwing a coin in the Trevi Fountain in Rome, I made a promise to the Numenii to become an archaeologist. My last night in Italy, I stayed awake listening to Florence's Duomo and I knew there was no other option. Living an ocean away from what I love is difficult. I can get close, but never close enough. After reading about the bog bodies of Northern Europe, I wanted to understand bog mummification. With the nearest bog 4,000 miles away, I made my own. Researching the science of the bogs…

She uses her sexually fueled power over Marcello and calls him to the fountain where she entices him to cross the line of “ego” and give into the “id” of the human persona and of his momentary desires. The two intimately share a moment where, at the moment of scene’s climax, the fountain waters are shut off and Marcello’s satisfaction is not met. This scene in its entirety was a bold archetype of sexuality expressed through Italian…
Popular culture, or Pop Art was a time when simple objects of everyday life were made into fine art, but more often Pop art is a statement on mass advertising and the customer culture after WWII. It also was a means to demonstrate against future conflicts as well. During the world’s recovery of WWII magazines and newspapers were full of advertisements of what to buy, and how the perfect house hold should look like. People tried to live above their means in order to fulfil what they thought they…
Mythology and Folklore have fascinated people and left them in awe for thousands of years. While sharing other similar qualities, a constant one is animals. Animals have not just been used in stories, but are used in real life to sometimes also represent a deity. When compared to Propp Theory, the animal usually is identified as a donor or helper, and often is the key to aiding the hero in their quest. Occasionally, the animal can also embody the villain and the hero as well. They are found in…
2. Parioli and Flaminio These regions are known for the parks and the famous Villa Borghese gardens which is its focal point. In addition, there is a deviation from historical presence in these localities. Visitors with children find it most amusing to visit this area as children have freedom and multiple options to obtain entertainment starting from play areas (like Casino di Rafaello), puppet theatres and ending with the great Casa del Cinema. Villa Borghese gardens occupy a total space of 148…
Baroque, “derived from the Portuguese word barroco, meaning oddly shaped pearl,” was a period beginning at about 1600 and ending at approximately 1750. The Baroque was a reformation of both the art and architectural worlds, being that the focus turned to a more exaggerated, clear, and easily interpreted view of artistic pieces. The Baroque started in Rome around 1600 and before it ended, it had spread all across the European continent. The style that the Baroque brought to Europe was…
but awe at Pannini’s talent. At a grand scale, Picture Gallery with Views of Modern Rome is a masterpiece. Yet, within this greater piece are references for Pannini’s other works, advertising Pannini’s vaster collection. For example, the Fontana di Trevi, which Pannini painted in 1750 is featured on the left, just above the duke’s head. All Pannini needs is for that viewer to stop, and his talent and legacy can be demonstrated in a single painting. Painting paintings within a painting may seem…
