The book presents the dramatic dialogue between industrial machinery and classical antiquity, where marble gods and Roman portrait busts stand alongside towering turbines and generators in the Ostiense district of Rome. Authored by three leading scholars from the Musei Capitolini, the work details the history, archaeology, and curatorial vision behind this unique permanent exhibition, offering authoritative commentary on the individual works and their broader historical significance. Published under the auspices of the Comune di Roma and the Assessorato alle Politiche Culturali, it stands as an essential reference for anyone interested in Roman sculpture, ancient history, and innovative approaches to museum display.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887977017563,"sku":"9788837046248-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/041606c0-078c-41ec-b927-4a0dbde678f1.png?v=1781751604","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9788837046248-secondhand-centrale-montemartini-musei-capitolini","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
