Antonio Canova
was born in Possagno (today in #Treviso province, at the time Republic Of Venice).
#Canova is considered the greatest Neoclassical artist, his marble sculptures are the most breathtaking symbols of perfection!
His most famous masterpieces are Amore e Psiche ("Psyche Revived by Cupid's Kiss") held at Louvre Museum in Paris and Le Tre Grazie ("The Three Graces") held at the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg.

Here in Venice we can admire #AntonioCanova sculptures at Correr Museum in #SanMarco Square, but I strongly recommend to visit his Home Museum and Temple in his birthplace #Possagno: absolute magic! #1November

50 years ago Le Orme from #Venice, #Italy released their 6th studio album.

The band moved to Los Angeles, California to record Smogmagica and the entire album, both musically and lyrically, is inspired by their American experience.
Its title refers to the polluted atmosphere they encountered in the city and the cover artwork by #PaulWhitehead (designer for Genesis and Van Der Graaf Generator) is also inspired by Los Angeles.

But what makes this album unique in #LeOrme career is its guitar-driven sound, different from all other works from them: the band hired in fact wonderful guitarist Tolo Marton from #Treviso (his only appearance with Le Orme), who actively took part in the songwriting and brought in his bluesy style, even introducing elements of Country and Boogie Rock.
