The film depicting the final days before the death of Lord Byron, a 19th-century Romantic poet, is almost a tribute to the political beliefs and struggles of that era. It offers a unique portrayal of Byron not only as a poet but also as someone deeply in love with Greece and possessing a revolutionary spirit.
French artist Félix Ziem is one of the most original landscape painters of the 19thcentury. The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined.
