Le ore dell’Imperatore
Collana Interventi della Fondazione Paola Droghetti Questo volume, il XVII della collana INTERVENTI d’Arte sull’Arte curata dalla Fondazione Paola Droghetti onlus, contiene i risultati del nostro ultimo impegno che realizza appieno gli scopi della Fondazione riguardanti non solo il recupero del patrimonio artistico nazionale ma anche la promozione della diffusione della cultura storico-artistica. Si tratta infatti del finanziamento del restauro della Pendola Urania, una preziosa pendola di epoca imperiale di proprietà del Museo Napoleonico a Roma e la contemporanea organizzazione di un ciclo di quattro incontri tenuti nello stesso Museo da storici dell’arte sulle vicende, le dimore e le porcellane dei Bonaparte nonché sulle figurazioni degli orologi del sei e settecento.

Through the readings of history and style which they propose, can museums help bridge the gap that today seems to separate present from past, isolating individuals and groups in a contemporaneity without roots?
