Rome is to host an exhibition of Master Benedict Robazza.

Rome has recently seen the return of a great work of the Master Robazza, which might be called his masterpiece, The Inferno of Dante Alighieri, a unique work which is dedicated to the most famous canto of Dante's Inferno in fact, that Robazza has played in 18 panels of 90 square meters of marble resin. In fact, in May in Largo Giovanni XXIII, at the foot of Castel San'Angelo, was inaugurated the special exhibition of The Inferno of the Master Robazza Benedict, an event sponsored by the Department of Cultural Affairs and Communication of the City of Rome. Eighteen in marble panels, each measuring two meters by two and a half wide, representing the characters of Dante's Inferno and the penalties which they tear. A long white ribbon of 90 square meters on which to run, how about a film, the 34 songs of Dante Alighieri. Exposed to the public for the first and only time in 1995 at the Sala Brunelleschi's Palazzo degli Innocenti in Florence, Hell Master Robazza has been exposed to the Roman public free of charge until May 25.

Among the many works of the Holy Shroud, a bas-relief in gold and silver in the face of Christ: the most accurate reconstruction of three-dimensional shape ever made and certified at the time by Bishop Giulio Ricci, president of the Roman town of Sindonology.
The exhibition in the Galleria Tartaglia Arte in February will see the imperial marble sculptures, bronze and lava as well as some oil paintings depicting horses portrayed in a unique and feature Robazza.
