The charm of living paintings awaits you in Montemassi on June 1
If you have never seen the living pictures, this is the perfect opportunity to be enchanted by a unique experience: on June 1, 2025, Montemassi will be transformed into an open-air stage to host the striking living pictures, an event that combines art, history and popular participation. The living pictures are real scenes inspired by famous paintings or moments from rural and medieval life, reproduced with the help of costumed figurants, as motionless as statues, perfectly integrated into real sets.
During the event, as you stroll through the streets of the ancient village, you will be able to admire the living paintings located along a scenic route: every corner, every glimpse of Montemassi will come to life, transforming into a living setting. I living pictures tell stories, emotions, historical and cultural details with an intensity that only silence and stillness can convey. Every performance is taken care of down to the smallest detail: from the historical costumes to the posture of the figures, from the lighting to the background music, everything contributes to creating a magical atmosphere.
The living paintings are not just a spectacle to be observed, but an immersive journey through time, a chance to rediscover traditions and scenes of life in the past through an art form that involves the whole community.
