    The magic of art is extraordinary because it transforms what it touches, surpasses reality itself and recreates it. Let's compare medieval castles with baroque palaces and we will see that feudal kings seem beggars next to the mighty monarchs of the XNUMXth and XNUMXth centuries, thanks to the imagination of the architects, painters and sculptors who were in charge of embellishing the buildings of that time.
