**REGISTRATION REQUIRED!** **[Click here to register](https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/1517642546901/WN_OBaCPitqTIyo7GpksRRCWw)**

Step into the heart of **Renaissance Florence** and discover the genius of **Lorenzo Ghiberti**, the visionary artist who gave life to the world-famous **Gates of Paradise**.
Join us for a captivating **virtual tour** that brings to life the story of a man who transformed bronze into beauty and forever changed the course of art and architecture. Together, we’ll explore the **Baptistery of San Giovanni**, where Ghiberti’s golden doors shimmer with scenes from the Old Testament — each panel a masterpiece of perspective, emotion, and technical mastery.
It was **Michelangelo** himself who, upon seeing these magnificent doors, declared them *“worthy to be the Gates of Paradise.”* From that moment, the name became eternal — a tribute from one Renaissance genius to another.
Through detailed images and storytelling, we’ll follow Ghiberti’s journey, his workshop filled with apprentices destined to become masters, and the artistic atmosphere of **Florence in the 15th century**, where innovation and faith walked hand in hand.
Join us live on Zoom and uncover the extraordinary story of **Lorenzo Ghiberti**!
