Museo Tamo Mosaico is the Museum about history of mosaic: from ancient mosaic to contemporary and it’s hosted inside the beautiful Church of S. Nicolò. This fourteenth Century Church offers a fascinating itinerary through excellent finds, many of them still unpublished. The paperboards of the great restorers, the sinopias and a space dedicated to materials, which includes the gold glass and the colourful enamels by the famous Venetian glassmaker Angelo Orsoni, introduce the visitor to the fascinating world of mosaic. The themed itinerary guides the visitor through the discovery of the secrets of mosaic: making a mosaic is not just the result of technical procedures, but also a wonderful, individual and complex artistic language, that the visitor can understand walking through the mosaics and enjoying an exemple of the typical “atelier” of the artist of mosaic.
Another section of the Museum is the so called “Mosaici tra Inferno e Paradiso” (Mosaics between Hell and Heaven) and it’sdedicated to the great poet Dante Alighieri. This section includes 21 thematic works commissioned to great Italian artists of the 1900.
