Padua Italy Magnet | City of Giotto and the Oldest Botanical Garden in the World | 2x2 | Made in Canada

Padua, Italy, Magnet

A bold tribute to the City of Giotto and the Oldest Botanical Garden in the World where Padua, the ancient city in the Veneto region of northeastern Italy whose university founded in 1222 is the second oldest in the world and whose botanical garden established in 1545 is the oldest university botanical garden in continuous operation anywhere on earth, holds a collection of world firsts that give this compact city an outsized place in the history of Western civilization, where the Scrovegni Chapel, the small private chapel frescoed by Giotto di Bondone between 1303 and 1305 with a cycle of 39 scenes from the lives of Joachim, Mary, and Jesus that art historians regard as the single most important work in the history of Western art for inaugurating the naturalistic revolution that led directly to the Renaissance, draws visitors from around the world to stand before paintings that changed the course of European art, where the Basilica of Saint Anthony of Padua, one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in the world housing the relics of the great Franciscan preacher and miracle worker, dominates the city's skyline with its eight Byzantine domes, and where Galileo Galilei taught at Padua University from 1592 to 1610, the most productive period of his scientific life.
