Vivaldi: L'Inverno

Everyone knows Italy has the greatest artistic heritage of the world, for the truth, belonging to UNESCO we have the 70% of world’s art in our country and that’s because we always loved to create from the inanimate, to give birth from the stone or from the marble or from the brushes.
Italian cities are full of examples.

Let’s start our trip from the North and let’s arrive to the South.
