The Week of the Italian Language in Georgia

The Week of the Italian Language in Georgia concluded at the Tbilisi State University. Presented a special stamp by the Georgian Post Office, which shows Dante’s effigy by the famous Georgian painter Sergo Kobuladze, and a bilingual Italian-Georgian commemorative edition of Dante’s “Vita Nuova.”
