The Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice
is the most important museum in Italy for European and American art of the
first half of the 20th century. Its most famous (or notorious)
exhibit is the 1948 bronze The Angel of the City by Marino Marini (1901-1980). Erected at the front of the museum
facing the Grand Canal, this sculpture sports an erection of its own. Check it out (here.)
