Comparsa all'improvviso davanti a noi sulla strada per la Certosa, ricorda le grandi statue che si ergevano nella Magna Grecia ed in epoca romana per celebrare gli dei come Minerva, dea della guerra che qui si presenta in tutta la sua assoluta potenza. La tradizione vuole che la si veda solo dopo la Laurea quindi noi abbiamo rispettato questa usanza anche se sono ormai passati molti anni!

Appearance suddenly in front of us on the way to the monastery, is reminiscent of the large statues that stood in ancient Greece and Roman times to celebrate the gods as Minerva, Goddess of war here that presents itself in all its absolute power. Tradition has it that the see only after graduating so we have respected this tradition even though many years have passed!
