From underneath, a bud penetrated the basket in the secret of the shadow. One after the other, the leaves of the plant sprouted upwards towards the light, between the spaces of the woven wicker. That metamorphosis of natural and sacred moved everyone and no one dared touch it. The sculptor Callimachus thought to translate the plant into marble, forever fixing this emotion in the invention of the Corinthian capital. The wild acanthus leaf thus became the precious frieze motif of Greek and Roman buildings everywhere in the Mediterranean.      <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"573\" src=\"https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-Emiciclo-daccesso-ai-Viali-del-Bosco-1024x573.jpg\" alt=\"Real Bosco di Capodimonte\" class=\"wp-image-8046\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-Emiciclo-daccesso-ai-Viali-del-Bosco-1024x573.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-Emiciclo-daccesso-ai-Viali-del-Bosco-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-Emiciclo-daccesso-ai-Viali-del-Bosco-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2-Emiciclo-daccesso-ai-Viali-del-Bosco-768x430.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Access hemicycle to Viali del Bosco, Real Bosco di Capodimonte.
