Arco della Pace: Roberto Cavalli Spring Summer
2012 collection – the venue. The venue
for the Roberto Cavalli Spring Summer 2012 collection was once again the impressive
Arco della Pace or Arch of Peace which rises prominently behind the Sforzesco
Castle. Built during the Napoleon rule,
to celebrate the glories of the young French emperor, the monument was begun in
1807 by architect Louis Cagnola, but was interrupted by the defeat of Waterloo
and was later completed in 1838, by Emperor Francis I of Austria. The neo-classical
marble opera is decorated with sculptures and Corinthian columns: on top beautiful
decorative bronzes of six horses lead a wagon led by Peace.
