For over 20 years, Alberto Angela has filmed some of the world’s most important museums at night. It is the only time one can observe the empty halls or see precious artifacts outside of their display cases, as there are no visitors around. At night, a museum takes on a different appearance. It is just us and the masterpieces, immersed in silence.
