Rome is the world capital of churches, with over 900 scattered throughout the city. If you also count the small chapels inside private buildings, palaces, and convents, the total number reaches 1,600. If you plan to spend a maximum of one hour in each church, you would need 67 days to visit them all. You can stumble upon a church on almost every street corner, and even if some of them don’t look very spectacular from the outside, you will surely be amazed by what you find inside. 📸: Peter Rajkai #architecture #design #building #rome #church #italy #italia #travel #photography

Life imitates art far more than art imitates life. - Oscar Wilde Oscar Wilde suggests that life takes cues from art, but the complexities of existence challenge this notion. Cinema offers enchanting stories, yet these crafted tales rarely mirror our intricate lives. Life, unpredictable, leads us through joys and sorrows that surpass any screenplay. Joyful individuals radiate beyond the happiest film endings, while others face unseen tragedies deeper than any movie plot. Art tries to capture life but is limited by our perception, whereas life continually evolves with unique experiences. Wilde’s words remind us to appreciate life’s kaleidoscope, embracing both its artistic and uncharted facets, revealing its true beauty and unpredictability. #art #design #artist #artwork #creative #photography

A 2,400-year-old Greek mosaic was discovered in Hatay, Turkey, depicting a skeleton with a mug, wine pitcher, and bread, along with the inscription “Be cheerful, enjoy your life.” Estimated to be from the 3rd century BC, it was found in 2012 during construction in Antakya. Archaeologists believe it belonged to the dining room of an upper-class house in the ancient city of Antioch, established in the 4th century BC by Seleucus, a general of Alexander the Great. #architecture #design #ancient #history #hatay #turkey #türkiye #greek #archaeology #travel #photography

The Mascarino Staircase, designed by Ottaviano Mascarino and built in 1584, is a hallmark of Roman architecture from the late 1500s. Located in the Palazzina Gregoriana at the Quirinal Palace, it was commissioned by Pope Gregory XIII for summer use. This spiral staircase originally provided formal access to the upper floors, where the pope's private and audience rooms were located. Its elliptical design reduced space usage while offering an aesthetically pleasing result, featuring pairs of travertine columns and an elliptical skylight that creates picturesque lighting effects. Despite changes in the palace's layout, the staircase remained significant for accessing residential rooms and was considered Mascarino's greatest work. 📸: Massimo Osanna #architecture #design #building #architect #museum #ancient #italy #italia #roma #rome #heritage #travel #photography
