The first time I was in Rome I felt absolutely disoriented.
I wanted to see everything, but I did not what to do or where to go so I stopped a passer-by and asked him for the nearest subway station .
I then started walking down the indicated street when suddenly I came across this beautiful, mysterious church called San Pietro in Vincoli.
I decided to go in and suddenly I found myself face to face with Michelangelo’s Moses.
Totally unprepared, I stumbled making heads turn and stare at me.
I blushed like a child, but I couldn’t break away from that masterpiece.
It was almost like a mystical experience.
I had read about Michelangelo in my school books of course but this.
.
this was absolutely different.
Something that melted my heart and made my blood run faster.
Even today looking at the picture by Gizax you see above I feel the same old emotion .
The same strange excitement.
