The monumental frame by American sculptor Nall, which dominates the entrance to Via Mazzini-Piazza Crispi as you approach from the Piazza Statuto parking lot, has returned to its original location. Since its installation in 2006, it has become one of the historic center's main artistic attractions. The sculpture has undergone a delicate restoration by the Fonderia Versiliese. Donated to the city of Pietrasanta by the Alabama State Council on the Arts, the large frame is once again in perfect condition. The planned careful but rapid conservation restoration, which lasted about a month, was also completed. The frame was placed on a new base at street level.

Alba Gonzales. The subject of the sphinx recurs in many of her works, with the creature's typical ambivalence. For Gonzales, the sphinx embodies the seductive allure of many contemporary dreams and myths. Today's sphinx no longer poses its deadly enigmas because it has become an enigma itself. This Sphinx offers a dove, a bird sacred to Aphrodite and a symbol of prostitution. It mirrors a sexual act no longer experienced authentically, but mechanically, and a narcissism contrasted with openness and contact with others.

The beginning of the suggestive "middle way" in Pietrasanta

Very beautiful places but in some places not accessible to racing bikes especially. There is a stretch of beach where you have to walk, but otherwise doable

From this small secondary road below the peak of Mount Cucco you can enjoy an excellent view of Versilia.

The Museo dei Bozzetti (Museum of Sketches) in Pietrasanta is a unique place that offers a fascinating insight into the creative process of sculptors. Housed in the former convent of Sant’Agostino, the museum houses over 700 sketches, models and drawings by more than 350 Italian and foreign artists12. The collection consists mainly of small sketches and life-size models that show the preparatory steps of a sculptor. These works are often as impressive as the final sculptures and provide a deep insight into the artistic vision and technique of the artists2. The museum is a must-see for art lovers and offers a unique opportunity to follow the evolution of a work of art, from concept to completion.
