LoveItaly is a dynamic nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving Italy’s rich cultural heritage by connecting passionate donors, families, foundations, and businesses with unique restoration projects in need of private funding. With a curated list of prospective projects and the capability to scout and identify new opportunities tailored to specific interests, LoveItaly offers a personalized approach to heritage conservation. Whether a crumbling fresco, an ancient ruin, or a historic monument, LoveItaly bridges the gap between those who cherish Italy’s past and the restoration efforts that ensure its future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working with a consolidated network of cultural institutions and professionals, we guide donors through the contractual, legal, and practical steps of the process. LoveItaly accepts private and corporate funding in Italy and the United States through American Friends of LoveItaly (AFLI), a nonprofit organization incorporated under section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code, making donations tax-deductible within the prescribed limits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a small sample of projects around the country seeking partners for funding, and we are available to identify other works of art in need of restoration in specific parts of the country. Estimates are quoted in Euros, net of tax or contributions required by law; for more information or additional documentation on a project, please contact ciao@loveitaly.org<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us in safeguarding Italy’s treasures, one project at a time.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Villa Giulia, Rome<\/h3>\n

Villa Giulia is a stunning Renaissance villa built as a summer residence for Pope Julius III, to whom it owes its name, between 1550 and 1555 under the supervision of Giorgio Vasari. Michelangelo also worked on the project. Today it houses the National Etruscan Museum \u2013 ETRU. \u200b<\/p>\n

Pope Julius, a great connoisseur of the arts, took a direct interest in the villa\u2019s design and decor and spent vast amounts of money on enhancing its beauties. Villa Giulia is one of the most beautiful examples of Mannerist architecture.<\/p>\n

The vast display at Villa Giulia ranges from Etruscan artefacts to the 19th century jewellery of the Castellani collection.\u00a0 There are numerous spectacular works of art waiting to be restored. Please contact us for information about projects at the Museum.<\/p>\n

Athena Parthenos<\/h2>\n

This Roman copy of Athena Parthenos, the lost gold and ivory sculpture of the Greek goddess Athena by Phidias, dates to the mid second century AD. It was discovered during excavation of Villa Simonetti in Santa Marinella, the summer residence of Roman jurist Eneo Domizio Ulpiano.<\/p>\n

State of Conservation<\/b>: Athena Parthenos has an average degradation. The surface is covered by oxalates, caused by the dirt in the ground where it was found. Pieces of the marble are deteriorating. The statue is 3\u20444 intact with the upper extremities (arms) missing. The pins inside the bust which supported the arms are creating cracks.<\/p>\n

Conservation Work: <\/b>The surface will be cleaned to remove inconsistent and coherent deposits. A consolidant will be applied which will give new consistency to both the surface and the constituent material. Diagnostic investigations (X-ray) are proposed to understand how long the iron-carbon posts are and to establish the best method to remove them, if necessary, or treat them with a corrosion converter. At the end of the intervention, a final protective will be applied.<\/p>\n

MARINE MOSAIC<\/b><\/p>\n

This black and white mosaic depicting sea scenes once occupied the entire floor area of a taberna on Via della Foce.\u00a0 This was located in an important area, not only a commercial crossroads but also a key position between the Forum, the mouth of the Tiber and Porta Marina.<\/p>\n

Measuring 7.5 x 4 m approx., the mosaic incorporates decorative details of the four cardinal points and features surrounding a central marble basin. Scholars have unanimously dated it to the age of Commodus, with additional modifications in the third century AD.<\/p>\n

MEDICINAL GARDENS <\/b><\/p>\n

The Certosa or Charterhouse on the island of Capri was founded in 1363 by Carthusian monks. The order was the first in the Middle Ages to cultivate medicinal plants which they used to treat those inside the monastery and the surrounding community suffering from various ailments.<\/p>\n

Today, these ancient medicinal gardens are in disarray for lack of funding but could serve as a source of enrichment to the island community and tourists, helping everyone rediscover the importance of plants and herbs to modern day medical practices and pharmaceuticals.<\/p>\n

There is potential to collaborate on this project with the world-renowned Royal Botanical Gardens of Naples, just across the Gulf.<\/p>\n

GLADIATOR GALLERIES<\/p>\n

The dimensions of this amphitheater – 140meters by 119meters – make it the the third largest Roman amphitheater in Italy.\u00a0 It was purpose built in 4C BC for gladiator games. Much of it was destroyed by the Spaniards in the 16th century when they used the stones to build the city walls of Ortigia. However, the gladiator galleries, a vaulted corridor used by the gladiators to enter the arena are still standing.<\/p>\n

Today the amphitheater is closed to the public;\u00a0 funding would make the gladiator galleries accessible to the public, with the installation of a lighting system inside and outside the galleries.<\/p>\n

Small Cloister, Certosa di San Giacomo<\/h2>\n

The Certosa or Charterhouse of Capri is a beloved and iconic site for all the island’s inhabitants and once served as the island\u2019s apothecary, hospital and spiritual center. From its dominant position on the cliffs, it has survived seven centuries of pirates, war, plague and monastic suppression.\u00a0 One of the oldest documented historic buildings on the island, the complex comprises many buildings and open spaces including the Church, Refectory, Canonica, Small Cloister, Large Cloister, the Prior\u2019s Quarters and several splendid gardens.<\/p>\n

State of conservation<\/strong><\/p>\n

The elegant and intimate Small Cloister dates to the foundation of the Certosa (1371-1374), making it one of the oldest parts of the complex. The layout follows the architectural guidelines of St. Bruno, founder of the Carthusian order. The 18 ancient white marble columns, sequestered from buildings of the Imperial era, feature capitals of many different styles: Corinthian from the 1st century AD (probably taken from an imperial villa) and medieval, both the smooth leaves and large corner arches of the 12th century and the white marble crochet style popular in Italy between the 13th and 14th centuries.<\/p>\n

Restoration work<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many of the columns are now cracked and crumbling and require an intervention to repair their state.<\/p>\n

Their history and age make the columns totally irreplaceable and restoration work is necessary to ensure that they survive for centuries to come.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Sacred Shrines<\/h2>\n

Sacred shrines are scattered around all corners of the city of Rome. They were usually placed on street corners, but can also be found on the walls of buildings or houses.\u00a0 While nowadays they depict images of the Virgin Mary or local saints, the origin of these shrines dates back to ancient Rome when they would feature protective gods. By placing them at a crossroads, all the roads connected to it were entrusted to the protection of those gods. With the advent of Christianity, these pagan deities were replaced with Christian iconography.<\/p>\n

There are approximately 522 sacred shrines in Rome today, most of which date to the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. They were lit with gas lighting and provided the only night lighting in the city.<\/p>\n

The picture features a fourteenth-century frescoed aedicula in Rione Campitelli, belonging to the Church of S. Biagio de Mercato.\u00a0 Located between the Vittoriano and the Ara Coeli staircase, it is part of the remains of an insula<\/em>, a house of imperial Rome.<\/p>\n

FUND THIS RESTORATION PROJECT:\u00a0 <\/b>The costs for restoring the various aedicula in Rome range from \u20ac3,000 to \u20ac50,000.\u00a0 Please contact ciao@loveitaly.org to view the different options.<\/p>\n

Terracina, located 56km southeast of Rome on the coast, is a site that has been continuously occupied since antiquity, its location giving it notable strategic importance as it commanded the surrounding lowlands and mountains. Its history -unfolding across the Roman, medieval, modern and contemporary periods – has bequeathed a rich cultural, historical and archaeological heritage.<\/p>\n

Of particular interest is the Roman theater complex (1st century BC) on the Via Appia. This originally extended over an area of about 60×70 meters and was decorated with frescoes and precious marbles from all over the Mediterranean. The theater was rediscovered following bombing in WWII and partially excavated in the 1950s.\u00a0\u200b On November 11, 2023 the newly restored seating area in the theater was unveiled to the public. However, more restoration work is needed to allow the theater to be permanently open to the public and used as a location for events in addition to a complete lighting system, which could incorporate special projection mapping. Once restored, the theater can accommodate up to 3000 spectators.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n

THE AEDICULAS OF ASSISI<\/b><\/p>\n

The walls of the City of Assisi are studded with religious aediculae of all sizes.\u00a0 In ancient Roman religion, an aedicula (plural aediculae) is a small shrine, from the word aedes – <\/em>a temple building or dwelling place.\u00a0 Typically, these niches held statues of the gods that protected the household or the neighbourhood.\u00a0 With the advent of Christianity, the Roman gods were replaced by the Virgin Mary and local saints.\u00a0 The proliferation of these “aedicules” in Assisi reflects the city’s millenary status as a pilgrimage center.<\/p>\n
