The exhibition tells the story of the Ludovisi era: Ludovico Ludovisi, the Doge of the Papal States, was responsible for the construction of the famous family villa, Villa Ludovisi, and Alessandro Ludovisi, who built the Villa Ludovisi between 1621 and 1623. Pope Gregory XV was a very short-lived pope, between the most famous Roman dynasties of Borghese and Barberini. 
It is brought to life through the poetics of the great Italian Baroque painter Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, known as "Il Guercino" (Cento, 1591 - Bologna, 1666).

## 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 Light of the Prism of the Fort of Saint Angels When the light of the Tiber lifts up the round fortress of the bronze angel, you step into Rome&#39;s most eerie capsule of time and spacethe remains of the emperor, the sighs of the prisoner, the conspiratorial power, and the madness of the artist. Don&#39;t be fooled by the fairytale appearance, every tuff in the castle is soaked in the blood of historical paradoxes. **The soul in the secret passage whispers** (must see! ) Drill into the palace of the original site of Hadrian&#39;s tomb, and a mobile phone flashlight illuminates the brick voucher vault of 139 AD. Suddenly it hits the marks on the wall: there are six-man stars stacked next to the cross, and there is a line below &quot;1527.5.6&quot; - the Jewish doctor praying under the current when Pope Medici is besieged. When the wind passed through the neck, the smell of wax oil and rotten wood floated in the darkness, which was the smell of the fugitives burning furniture to warm the fragrant. As the angels climbed to the top floor looked back like a pedestal, the secret road like a giant snake drilled into the Vatican wall, and the foot sound of Clement VII stepping on this bloody road to escape echoed in the stone wall. **The epic of light and shadow of the spiral ramp**(shocking details) Circle along the slope of the ancient Yunling, the stone wall suddenly cracked a small window: at 12 noon, the sun pierced like a golden spear, and the complete triumphal arch of light dropped on the wall! Look closely at the edge of the light spot, in the dents worn by medieval prisoners with chains, There are several Renaissance glass beads (legacy of the nobles). Walk to the site of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of the Fort of **The Angel Bridge&#39;s torture ballet** (the beautiful moment) rushed to the banks of the Tiber River after sunset. The 12th Bernini apprentice carved armed angels gradually lit up in the dusk: when the first star was reflected in the eyes of the angel &quot;holding the crown&quot;, the whole bridge suddenly turned into a flowing theater. A closer look at the angel&#39;s spear gesture: the shadow of the spear pointed to the vent of the castle dungeon one night in 1574, where the escapee was betrayed by the moonlight in a dramatic setting. **Psalm of Prisoners on the Terrace Star Map**(Soul Strike) Night at the top terrace cafe, waiting for tourists to disperse and look up at the bronze angel: its sword tip will always point to the direction of the comet. Using the mobile phone star map APP, it is obvious that the angle of the angel&#39;s wings locks the Saturn position on May 6, 1527. Even more frightening is the archery array of the south wall: the moonlight through the hole, projecting the coded spectrum of Dante&#39;s Divine Comedy (the secret creation of modern monks) on the ground. Zi leaned on the East Wing Fort and watched the last tram pass the Holy Spirit Bridge. The moment the car lights swept through the castle&#39;s exterior wall, the bullet-scarred wall suddenly appeared the bullet holes of the guerrillas shot by the Nazis in 1944, which were repaired by vines into a green cross. At this time, drinking a glass of wine, the sound of the imperial knell and the Renaissance harp in the wind. The deadliest charm of the Castle of Saint Angel is that it puts you on the threshold of blood and beauty: when the first swallow in the morning dives into the dew of the bronze angel&#39;s sword, you know the immortality of Rome, because it is forever steel between ruin 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~
