A cultural premiere in Iași showcases Giotto's "Polyptych of Bologna," a nearly seven-century-old masterpiece. This artwork, considered Italy's treasure, is displayed under strict security measures, including motion sensors and video surveillance. The painting features the Virgin Mary with child, surrounded by saints and archangels, and is valued at over 100 million euros. It is the first time this heritage piece has left Italy, making its transport a significant challenge. The exhibition runs for one more week in Iași, highlighting the artistic genius of Giotto, a precursor to Renaissance masters like Da Vinci and Michelangelo.
