Description
The chemist. Life-size scenes representing aspects of popular life in Rome in the early nineteenth century in the Museum of Rome in Trastevere, Rome, Italy. The Roman Scenes were created between 1930 and 1952, inspired by the works of Bartolomeo Pinelli Rome 1781-1835. The museum was instituted in 1977 in the recently restored Carmelite convent of Saint Egidio. Transferring the material most closely connected to the documentation of daily life and Roman traditions to this new location in Trastevere was motivated by the idea to create a connection between the museum and this historical part of the city. Trastevere can be considered the area of Rome where it is still possible to trace the fragments and force of popular Roman culture.
