Exhibition of antique mosaics from Ravenna to open in Split

Autor: itom
ZAGREB, May 26 (Hina) - An exhibition called "Late Antique and Medieval Mosaics from Ravenna" will open in Split's Museum of Croatian Archaeological Monuments on June 2 on the occasion of the Day of Italy and Croatia's accession to the European Union, a press conference heard earlier in the week.

The exhibition consists of about 40 copies of mosaics from the Ravenna basilicas and mausoleum, Split Deputy Mayor Jure Sundov said.

Italian Consul Paola Cogliandro said the exhibits were made with a specific technique which is taught at a Ravenna school. This collection of antique mosaics emerged in the early 1950s and were exhibited for the first time in Paris in 1951 and have since been shown in several capitals, including Madrid, Berlin, Moscow and St Petersburg.

The exhibition is just one of the events organised by Italy to celebrate Croatia's accession to the European Union on July 1, which should facilitate a better life for citizens on both sides of the Adriatic, Consul Cogliandro said.

The exhibition was organised by the Italian Consul in Split, the cities of Ravenna and Split and the Split Museum of Croatian Archaeological Monuments. It will remain open until July 12.
