Federalberghi comprises over 27,000 hotels in Italy. Since its establishment in 1899, it has combined a mission of promoting tourism with social goals and community service. Still today the hotels perform public service roles, first and foremost, offering an accessible and safe space for citizens, even at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Program Coordinator, LoveItaly assists both hotel and museum in identifying the artifact and delivers all the necessary logistical aspects. Hotels and museums in Italy that are interested in taking part should contact \u2013 <a href=\"mailto:ciao@loveitaly.org\">ciao@loveitaly.org<\/a> \u2013 for information.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"pl-gb14144-69ea4913e7f30\"  class=\"panel-layout\" ><div id=\"pg-gb14144-69ea4913e7f30-0\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-gb14144-69ea4913e7f30-0-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-gb14144-69ea4913e7f30-0-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_siteorigin-panels-builder panel-first-child\" data-index=\"0\" ><div class=\"team-box no-panel-margin panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-gb14144-69ea4913e7f30-0-0-0\" ><div id=\"pl-w6968f670792b6\"  class=\"panel-layout\" ><div id=\"pg-w6968f670792b6-0\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-w6968f670792b6-0-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w6968f670792b6-0-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child\" data-index=\"0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">The Goddess Rome (or Virtus)<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">On loan from Museo Nazionale Romano<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Bettoja Hotel Meditteraneo<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-w6968f670792b6-0-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image\" data-index=\"1\" ><div class=\"popup-trigger panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-w6968f670792b6-0-0-1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/HotelMediterraneo_PhVirginiaBettoja_VBE_6484-scaled-800x480.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"480\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" title=\"HotelMediterraneo_PhVirginiaBettoja_VBE_6484\" alt=\"\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-w6968f670792b6-0-0-2\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-last-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div class=\"popup panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-w6968f670792b6-0-0-2\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Bettoja Hotel Mediterraneo, Via Cavour, Rome<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Statue of the Goddess Rome or <em>Virtus<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Personification of Rome and her Empire or Roman military valor<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Marble, 2nd Century AD<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the religion of the ancient Romans, the Goddess Roma personified the city and the empire of Rome and was usually depicted in military form with features that highlight her <em>virtus<\/em> or \u201cvirtue\u201d, in Amazonian style.

The traces of corrosion on the nape of the neck, caused by burrowing molluscs, suggest that it was recovered from an underwater environment.\u00a0 It is likely that the statue, to which the head belonged, was displayed in a small temple dedicated to Aphrodite Euploia, the protector of safe navigation in the port area, this would have been located inside a larger sacred building similar to that in Knidos.<\/p>\n<p>Ancient sources note that the original statue was the first depiction of a nude female deity, causing a huge stir at the time. The goddess is depicted modestly covering herself as she emerges from the water: a gesture that combines naturalness and sensuality, accentuated by the refined realism of her face and a languid gaze turned to the horizon. The extraordinary beauty of the statue gave rise to ancient legends about young travelers falling madly in love with the image of the goddess.<\/p>\n<p>The Colonna Venus, in the Vatican Museums, is probably the most faithful copy of the original.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-16521 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-05-at-15.24.27-566x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"566\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-05-at-15.24.27-566x1024.png 566w, https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-05-at-15.24.27-166x300.png 166w, https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-05-at-15.24.27-600x1086.png 600w, https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-05-at-15.24.27.png 602w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 566px) 100vw, 566px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There is also a copy at Palazzo Altemps, part of the Museo Nazionale Romano:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16694 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-15-at-14.44.45.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"566\" height=\"738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-15-at-14.44.45.png 1060w, https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-15-at-14.44.45-230x300.png 230w, https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-15-at-14.44.45-785x1024.png 785w, https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-15-at-14.44.45-768x1001.png 768w, https:\/\/loveitaly.org\/v2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-15-at-14.44.45-600x782.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 566px) 100vw, 566px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Conserved at the <strong>National Archaeological Museum of Civitavecchia <\/strong>(ROMA), the head of Aphrodite is on loan to Albergo del Senato as part of the <strong>Art Out of the Museum project<\/strong>, re-establishing a dialogue with places of hospitality and travel and renewing the profound connection between beauty, the sea, and travel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Art Out of the Museum<\/b> (<i>Arte<\/i> <i>fuori<\/i><i> dal Museo<\/i>) is a public-private partnership\u00a0 between the Directorate-General of Museums of the Ministry of Culture, Federalberghi Lazio and the non-profit association LoveItaly.

destiny.\u00a0 Clotho spun the thread of an individual\u2019s lifespan, Lachesis would measure it and determine its length and Atropos would, implacably, cut it. Not even the gods of Olympus were exempt.\u00a0 As the shape of the fresco painting suggests, it once adorned a niche settled between depictions of her sisters.
