A little about Gaius Maecenas
Gaius Maecenas – The first patron of the arts and culture -The unique spirit and creativity of humanity can only be truly experienced through a real commitment to art and culture.
Gaius Cilnius Maecenas was born around 70 BC in what is today known as Arezzo in Tuscany. Well educated and of aristocratic birth, Maecenas enjoyed immense wealth throughout his life and achieved political influence as a friend and advisor of the Roman Emperor Augustus.
