The light of Byzantium, the color of Torcello, the gold of Venice. Three notes that give rise to a singular exceptional exhibition to celebrate one of the major artistic and cultural places of pilgrimage in recent centuries. An exhibition "alive", which tells a great story from the first settlements in the lagoon at the end of the thirteenth century through the glories of that art which, created in Byzantium, in the Venetian lagoon found the ideal environment in which to grow and develop, giving rise to new forms and expressions that are, even today, the magic of Torcello and the charm of Venice.
