Welcome

A similar visual replica of what the exterior might look like. Reference link.

Strolling through the courtyard, you notice the palace’s exterior: pure white porcelain-like structures with elongated, smooth columns. Lunette archways curve gently to meet one another, and the radiance of dawn illuminates the outer courtyard, filling with lovely light. The silence weighs still, and morning breathes to synchronicity of your heartbeat, never rushing any more than to a placid state of rest.

A voice calls out from within, at the top of a convergent staircase:

“Welcome to the Alba Celeste, a halcyon palace of divine rejuvenation. I am pleased to present to you the Prima Luce Caelesti exhibition within the piano nobile: a fine collection of five works.

Please enjoy a glass of wine as we celebrate the completion of the following artists’ works: Fra Filippo Lippi, Raphael Sanzio da Urbino, Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, and Sandro Botticelli.

You may also take some time to read the pamphlet about this exhibition and the curator.

Take heed to the Muses who serenade and resonate all around you as you witness the wondrous virtuosity of such ethereal creations. To the silken sky this eve of day, may the evocation of dawn renew our souls.”

“Though the muses whisper, indeed they resound of celestial bells and symphony.”
