Event Details

In the waning years of the 18th century, Napoleon Bonaparte victoriously occupied Rome, and his troops looted even the Sacristy of the Sistine Chapel, stripping it of its renowned collection of illuminated manuscripts.  Thanks to the initiative of one of Spain’s most illustrious religious leaders, a portion of the Sistine Sacristy Collection was rescued before it was scattered any further.  Learn about this remarkable saga at a free Pasta & Pizza Night presentation by the Assistant Curator of the Meadows Art Museum, Nicole Atzbach.  RSVP at http://lostmanuscripts.eventbrite.com so that we can set aside enough seats, and contact Mary Ann Webster at culture@itcd.org with any questions.

Antipasto, pizza, pasta, and beverages available for purchase before and after the presentation.
