In the heart of Veneto, Possagno is an artistic gem that preserves the legacy of its most illustrious son, Antonio Canova. This town is a must-visit for lovers of neoclassical art, hosting the Canovian Temple, a monument that blends spirituality and beauty, inspired by the Pantheon in Rome. Inside, the light gently filters through, caressing the sculptures that seem to come to life under its rays.
A short distance away, the Gipsoteca Canoviana Museum offers a unique journey through the master's original plaster casts, allowing visitors to closely admire the precision of his works. Here, the "Venere Italica" and the "Group of Cupid and Psyche" display Canova's incredible talent in capturing the human essence.
Possagno, with its cultural attractions, is an unmissable destination for those wishing to dive into the history of art and the timeless beauty of Canova's works. Visiting it means taking a plunge into neoclassical art, being enchanted by the mastery of one of the greatest sculptors of all time.
