#buonconsiglioonline - The secret of the lady with the carnation
the story, with short videos of the Castle and its collections
#buonconsiglioadomicilio is the new format of the Castello del Buonconsiglio.
Short videos of provincial monuments and collections to tell you about the Buonconsiglio Castle and its collections in these difficult days, when we must stay at home to fight the virus.
Every week the curators of the museum will propose contributions to discover the beauty of our castles.
This episode is dedicated to a characteristic flower: the carnation.
The director of the museum Laura Dal Prà, through some works kept in the museum collections, tells us the meaning of the presence of this flower in the iconography of the past.
We will thus discover that the carnation was a symbol of love and the promise of marital fidelity.
Images and direction by Alessandro Ferrini.
