Tarcento
Tarcento ( fur, Tarcint, sl, Čenta) is a small city, having become a city officially when the church was given back its rank of Duomo, cathedral, and ''comune'' (municipality) in the province of Udine, in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region of north-eastern Italy. History Tarcento occupies a strategic location at a bridging point on the River Torre. Archaeological finds indicate a very early date for its first human occupation.

Albino Lucatello
Albino Lucatello (Venice, 21 March 1927 − Udine, 28 October 1984) was a modern Italian painter. Early life Born into a modest family from Venice, Lucatello lived with his parents Andrea and Teresa Brunello within a stone's throw of the local parish church, Basilica dei Frari, where, as a young child, he would spend his time leafing through the art books stored in the sacristy. He attended the Carmini Art Institute, diligently combining formal academic study with his very own personal study of the city's rich artistic heritage: its wealth of church paintings, museums and art collections. He concluded his intense, if rather chaotic, studies in 1949 after following a course at the Scuola Libera del Nudo run by the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia. Here he was conferred the Institute's first prize for drawing, which he received from maestro Virgilio Guidi, who was to remain a friend. The prize announced his artistic debut among the new generation of up and coming artists and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Giovanni Marinelli
Giovanni Marinelli (18 October 1879 – 11 January 1944) was an Italian Fascist political leader. Marinelli was born in Adria, Veneto. A wealthy man, he contributed to Fascist success by financing the March on Rome. As secretary of the National Fascist Party (PNF), he created the '' Ceka'', a secret police established on the model of the Soviet Cheka. The Ceka soon established itself as a terrorist squad, and was behind the assassination of Giacomo Matteotti, a prominent member of the opposition to the Fascist régime. Tried as instigator of the murder in November 1925, Marinelli was defended by Roberto Farinacci himself, and eventually sentenced to a light punishment. His close friendship with Benito Mussolini ensured that he did not serve the full term. He remained out of the spotlight during most of the next two decades of Fascist rule, and appears to have been involved in the crushing of internal opposition to Mussolini (including moves inside the PNF). He was elected to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Arboretum
An arboretum (plural: arboreta) in a general sense is a botanical collection composed exclusively of trees of a variety of species. Originally mostly created as a section in a larger garden or park for specimens of mostly non-local species, many modern arboreta are in botanical gardens as living collections of woody plants and is intended at least in part for scientific study.

Related collections include a fruticetum, from the Latin ''frutex'', meaning ''shrub'', much more often a shrubbery, and a viticetum (from the Latin ''vitis,'' meani ...
