Sogno dell'Italia, Somnium Romae
1. I would pay A LOT of money to touch the Pieta by Michelangelo (I would be very gentle)
2. Rent out the Sistine Chapel and have a driver haul me around on one of those driving lifty platform forklift things while I lounged on my back on a feather bed gazing in rapt wonderment at the ceiling for as long as I wanted
3. Buy a fantastic house in Florence and prowl the city for months and months and keep company with art history master minds and have them tell me everything about everything until I am practically pregnant with all the beauty and art.
4. Hire a team of historians, scholars, antiquarians, linguists and archeologists, to traipse all over the area that was ancient Rome during the peak of the Empire and explore the Roman Way as filtered through the cultures it integrated into itself, do this in style for many years
