Fragile and powerful, flowers speak a universal language that can span centuries and cultures. They tell emotions, celebrate beauty, protest silently and guard age-old stories. And it is precisely to them that the Chiostro del Bramante in Rome dedicates an extraordinary exhibition: “Flowers. From the Renaissance to artificial intelligence”, scheduled from 14 February to 14 September 2025. The exhibition, curated by Franziska Stöhr with Roger Diederen, in collaboration with Suzanne Landau, offers a journey through five centuries of art, culture and innovation.

## The Umbilical Corridor of the Sky: The Space-Time Corridor of the Pantheon 

When you squeeze into the stone-columned porch from the noisy Coronari Street, you are suddenly swallowed by the 43.3-meter-high dome - this is not a building, but a model of the universe cast by the ancient Romans with concrete. The dust and mist of two thousand years of incense and candles roll in the light column. The whole temple is like a giant bell covering the mortal world, and you are standing at the critical point between God and man. 

**Sky Eye: The Black Hole That Devours Time** (Subverting Cognition) 
Looking up and staring at the 9-meter giant hole in the center of the dome, the rainstorm day turned out to be the most magical moment: the rain curtain poured vertically into the temple and crashed into broken diamonds on the colorful marble floor. In the afternoon with strong sunlight, the light column wandered on the ground like a golden hour hand, accurately sweeping across the emperor&#39;s tomb niche - the &quot;solar calendar&quot; designed by Hadrian, allowing the deceased to receive a solar coronation once a day. At 11:54 on the winter solstice, the light spot will completely cover the copper nail at the entrance (the starting point of the New Year in the ancient Roman calendar), with an error of less than three minutes in two thousand years!

**The Imperial Code in the Drain Hole** (Kneel and Observe) 
Don&rsquo;t be fooled by the iron bars of the central drain. Crouch and look at the 22 concave holes arranged along the edge of the drain&mdash;the base of the bronze rain chain from the Augustan era. Even more shocking is the slightly sloping slope at the bottom of the drain: during heavy rains, the water will swirl clockwise to form a mandala pattern, echoing the 28 ribs of the dome caisson (28 symbolizes the perfect number in the Pythagorean school). Ancient Roman engineers used millimeter-level slope calculations to let the forces of nature dance ballet in the temple for two thousand years. 

**The Geometric Murder on the Sarcophagus** (The Horrifying Truth) 
There are always crowds in front of Raphael&rsquo;s tomb, please turn to the corner of the tomb of Perrin del Vaga. There is a dagger-like scratch on the side of the black marble coffin: in 1547, two enemies dueled here, and the blade accidentally hit the sarcophagus and sparks burst out. A closer look at the cracks extending from the scratches formed an equilateral triangle, which coincided with the inscription on the coffin cover, &quot;ARTEM GEOMETRIAE&quot; (Art of Geometry). The Renaissance master even paid tribute to Euclid in his death. 

**Acoustic trap of the colonnade shadow** (personal experience of the wonder) 
Before sunset, stand behind the bronze monument of Marco Agrippa and recite poems softly. The sound waves were cut and refracted by 16 Corinthian columns, and they actually produced a clear echo in the tomb of Urban VIII 40 meters away! The architect used the difference in sound speed between the front porch and the rotunda to design the &quot;oracle effect&quot;. When the last light spot moved out of the eye of the sky, the entire temple turned into a giant resonance box - a stone column emitted the remnant of cheers when the construction was completed in 125 AD (actually the hallucination of the pigeon whistle in the square vortex in the dome). 

When the museum closed, I stayed by the rose-red giant column. At the moment when the security guards cleared the area and turned off the lights, the moonlight suddenly poured in from the hole in the dome, condensing into an ice-blue light pool on the Pantelic marble floor. At this moment, touch the mottled bronze door - the door is full of palm prints from 24 million pushes, and your palms overlap with the fingerprints of Cicero and Michelangelo in the dark. The most terrifying miracle of the Pantheon is that it gives the concrete body temperature: when the morning light pierces the eye of the sky again, in the rolling dust in the light column, there are Brunelleschi&#39;s exclamation when he stole the master&#39;s skills, the fragments of Galileo&#39;s manuscripts for calculating the curve of the dome, and the dewdrops of time and space condensed from the water vapor you exhaled and the steam of ancient Roman libations.

Castel Sant'Angelo

## Amber of Time and Space: The Prismatic Light of Castel Sant&#39;Angelo 

When the waves of the Tiber River lift up the round fortress with a bronze angel on its head, you have stepped into the most bizarre time capsule in Rome - here are the remains of emperors, the sighs of prisoners, the power of the pope and the madness of artists. Don&#39;t be fooled by the fairy-tale appearance, every tuff of the castle is soaked with the blood of historical paradoxes. 

**Whisper of the Dead in the Secret Passage** (Must-see!) 
Enter the underground palace of the original site of Hadrian&#39;s Mausoleum, and the mobile phone flashlight illuminates the brick vault in 139 AD. Suddenly touched the wall: a six-pointed star is stacked next to the cross, and there is a line below &quot;1527.5.6&quot; - when the Medici Pope was besieged, the Jewish doctor prayed at this moment. When the cold wind blows over the back of the neck, the smell of wax and rotten wood floats in the darkness, which is the residual fragrance of the refugees burning furniture for warmth. Climb to the top floor and look back from the pedestal of the angel statue. The secret passage is like a giant snake drilling into the Vatican wall. The footsteps of Clement VII who fled along this bloody road are still echoing on the stone wall. 

**The light and shadow epic of the spiral ramp** (shocking details) 
Spinning up the slope where the coffin was transported in ancient times, a small window suddenly cracked in the stone wall: at 12 noon, the sun pierced in like a golden spear, casting a complete triumphal arch of light on the wall! Looking closely at the edge of the light spot, the dents made by the iron chains of medieval prisoners are embedded with a few glass beads from the Renaissance (left over by nobles visiting the prison). Walking to the ruins of the crossbow platform, the window frame cleverly frames the dome of St. Peter&#39;s Basilica - Bernini&#39;s design scheme is revealed here: Castel Sant&#39;Angelo is the shield of the Vatican, and it is also the visual coordinate axis of the game of power. 

**The torture ballet of the Angel Bridge** (beautiful moment) 
Run to the bank of the Tiber River after sunset. Twelve armed angels carved by Bernini&#39;s apprentices gradually light up in the twilight: when the eyes of the fifth angel &quot;holding a crown of thorns&quot; reflect the first star, the whole bridge suddenly turns into a mobile theater. Take a closer look at the gesture of Angel II holding a spear: the shadow of the spear tip just points to the ventilation hole of the castle dungeon - a dramatic freeze frame of the prison escapee being betrayed by the moonlight one night in 1574. 

**Prisoner&#39;s Poem on the Terrace Star Map** (Soul Crit) 
Stay overnight at the top terrace cafe, and look up at the bronze angel after the tourists have dispersed: the tip of its sword always points to the direction of the comet. Using the mobile phone star map APP to compare, it is discovered that the angle of the angel&#39;s wings is locked to the position of Saturn on May 6, 1527 - the day the city was broken! Even more terrifying is the arrow hole array on the south wall: the moonlight passes through the holes and projects the cipher score of Dante&#39;s &quot;Divine Comedy&quot; on the ground (a secret creation of modern monks). 

Sit on the east wing turret at midnight and watch the last tram pass the Holy Spirit Bridge. The moment the carriage lights swept across the castle&#39;s outer wall, the bullet-riddled wall suddenly appeared - the bullet holes where the Nazis shot guerrillas here in 1944 were repaired by vines into green crosses. At this time, I drank the remaining wine in the glass, and the sound of the imperial death knell and the harp of the Renaissance were intertwined in the wind. The most fatal charm of Castel Sant&#39;Angelo is that it makes you stand at the critical point of blood and beauty: when the first swift swoops down in the morning light to peck at the dew on the tip of the bronze angel&#39;s sword, you will understand - Rome&#39;s immortality is precisely because it always walks a tightrope between ruins and rebirth

Roman Forum

The Roman Forum is a vivid reminder of ancient Rome&rsquo;s greatness. Though much of it is in ruins, what remains is enough to spark imagination about its past glory. Walking through the lively, bright city, I realize the forums aren&rsquo;t confined to one spot&mdash;they&rsquo;re spread throughout, giving me a sense of how vast and advanced Rome once was. It&rsquo;s an experience that blends history and atmosphere bringing the ancient world to life. I really love it here~

Haha, we missed the time perfectly. Everyone, please pay attention to the reserved date. It also gives me a good excuse to go to Rome again. The pictures were taken at the nearby Piazza del Popolo. There weren&#39;t too many people there, so we could go shopping together.
