On Friday, May 22nd, the restoration of the marble statue of Agrippina the Elder—niece of Emperor Augustus and wife of Germanicus—will be unveiled. This significant project was funded by the Inner Wheel Parma Est club, following last year’s restoration of the statue of Agrippina the Younger, her daughter, which was also made possible by the club’s generous support. An opportunity to rediscover the story of this courageous woman and of the statue, discovered in Veleia, which portrays her in her restored beauty.
