The behind the scenes and the difficulties hidden behind the simplest actions. The efforts of the staff and dozens of volunteers to give moments of joy and serenity to the protagonists. To their gaze, the paintings come to life: water roars, steamboats whistle, markets bustle with life, and snow-capped peaks glow in the warm sunlight. Paintings mingle with real landscapes, today and yesterday together, while anecdotes about the artworks are narrated by the exhibition's young curators. It is precisely in the eyes of the protagonists that we glimpse the enchantment of the landscape.
