Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.An exhibition of paintings by Marc Chagall (1887-1985) entitled "The World Upside-Down" opened to the public on Wednesday next to an ancient Roman altar in the centre of the Italian capital.
The exhibition inside the Ara Pacis complex brings together around 140 paintings from Nice and Paris, as well as private collections.
The display has been organised by the Marc Chagall National Museum in Nice.
Chagall, who was born in Vitebsk in what was then the Russian Empire and is now Belarus, has become famous for his gravity-defying paintings that feature flying farm animals, Jewish folk musicians and wedding scenes.
Chagall took French nationality in 1937 and became one of the most famous painters of the 20th century in France, along with Pablo Picasso.
The exhibition in Rome runs until March 27.
