“It is simple enough, and true enough, to say that Annie was unlike anyone I’d ever met, then or since.” Robert Baird remembers Annie Dillard, who died last week, at 81. https://t.co/z2ddKl1msv
Il #26aprile 1798 nasceva Eugène Delacroix, maestro del Romanticismo e artista della passione, del colore e della libertà. Le sue opere continuano a parlare al cuore e alla storia.
Il 25 aprile a Venezia non è solo "Liberazione", ma anche romanticismo: è la "Festa del bocolo"! Secondo la tradizione, gli innamorati donano una rosa rossa alla persona amata, un gesto che affonda le radici in una leggenda antica. Chi riceverà il tuo bocolo?
