Inside Pompeii: Origins of a European Way of Life
Inside Pompeii | 7 November – 30 January
Photographs by Luigi Spina
The European Union presents Inside Pompeii: Origins of a European Way of Life – a breathtaking exhibition showcasing the evocative photography of Luigi Spina, capturing the ancient city of Pompeii like never before.
The exhibition features 38 curated colour photographs (900 x 1200 and 1200 x 900) photographed during the pandemic, when Pompeii was eerily silent and empty. Through the lens of a purpose-built camera which allows photos to be taken in natural light, Pompeii is brought back to life. These stunning images invite us to walk its storied streets, hear the echoes of people’s lives, and marvel at the intricate frescoes that capture both the grandeur and intimacy of an ancient European way of living.
Tickets released early November
