Awed by all he saw in Rome during his semester abroad, Jack Wilson (’24 BFA) captured the marvels of the Eternal City on camera.

Written by Jen Roy

Being transported to a country with some of the richest history and culture, the most beautiful works of art and the most delicious food is truly a once in a lifetime experience. I will never forget exploring historic cities like Rome, Florence or Venice with the friends I made while studying abroad. Jack Wilson ‘24 BFA Painting Rome, Italy, Spring 2023
