Francis Ford Coppola Hospitalized, Undergoes Surgery
Yara Sameh Francis Ford Coppola has been hospitalized in Rome on Tuesday. The legendary filmmaker went in for a scheduled procedure with Dr. Andrea Natale, a renowned heart doctor who has treated Coppola for more than 30 years. A well-placed source said he is said to be resting nicely now, according to. Amid the flurry of reports about his health, Coppola took to Instagram on Tuesday evening to offer an update and confirm the procedure with Natale. 'Da Dada (what my kids call me) is fine, taking an opportunity while in Rome to do the update of my 30-year-old afib procedure with its inventor, a great Italian doctor — Dr. Andrea Natale!' posted Coppola to his nearly 500,000 followers. 'I am well!'. According to the American Heart Association, an 'afib' procedure refers to atrial fibrillation, a treatment to help reset the heart's rhythm using a small electrical shock or medication. There are surgical or nonsurgical options depending on the nature of the issue. Coppola had just wrapped up a six city U.S. tour in support of his film Megalopolis in partnership with Live Nation. His final show, which included a screening of the self-financed pic and a Q&A, took place at San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts on Friday night. 'I'm 85,' he told the audience, per SF Gate, referencing his age though he is now 86. 'I lost my wife [Eleanor Coppola] a year ago, around this time. But my attitude for death is that I always lived my life so that when I was at the moment approaching death, I wouldn't say, 'Oh, I wish I had done this and I wish I had done that.' Instead, I say to myself, 'I got to do this.'' It's unclear at what point over the weekend he flew back to Italy, where he had spent time earlier this summer. He told local media that he spent time location scouting for a new project. 'I'm here in Calabria to see some locations for a new project that's very important to me,' he reportedly said. 'A new film that will focus on the beautiful things of Calabria.' Not much is known about the project but Coppola teased that it won't be a mafia-based project like his iconic Godfather trilogy. 'Calabria is a region very famous for its mafia, but that doesn't interest me. My film instead will focus solely on the beautiful things about this region.' read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Ali abo deshish As part of strengthening cultural ties between Egypt and Italy—particularly in the field of archaeology—Dr. Mohamed Ismail Khaled, Secretary-General of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities, and Mr. Fabio Taliaferri, Chairman of ALES (Ministry of Culture, Italy), have signed a cooperation agreement to organize the temporary exhibition 'Pharaohs' Treasures', set to open on October 24, 2025, at the Scuderie del Quirinale in Rome. The signing ceremony took place in the presence of Italian Ambassador to Cairo, Michele Quaroni; Dr. Moamen Othman, Head of the Museums Sector in Egypt; Simone Todorov de San Giorgio, Executive Director of Mondo Mostre; and Matteo Lafranconi, Director of Scuderie del Quirinale. Dr. Khaled emphasized the significance of this cultural collaboration, praising the longstanding ties between Egypt and Italy. He noted that the exhibition serves as a cultural gateway that highlights the richness of ancient Egyptian civilization and strengthens global appreciation for human heritage. 'Pharaohs' Treasures' will be the second largest Egyptian exhibition ever held in Italy, featuring 130 carefully selected artifacts from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir and the Museum of Art in Luxor. The display will explore themes including kingship, the royal court, religious beliefs, daily life, funerary rituals, and the afterlife. The exhibition will run until May 2026, offering Italian and international visitors an extended opportunity to experience the grandeur of ancient Egypt. Among the highlights are artifacts being displayed in Italy for the first time, such as: • The golden coffin of Queen Iahhotep, a masterpiece of New Kingdom funerary art. • The funerary mask of King Amenemope, symbolizing divine kingship and eternal life. • The Triad of King Menkaure, a monumental Old Kingdom statue representing the king flanked by deities Hathor and the local god of Thebes. • The golden coffin of Tuya, grandmother of Akhenaten, adorned with hieroglyphs narrating her journey to the afterlife. • The legendary Golden Fly Necklace of Queen Ahmose Nefertari, an ancient military honor awarded to Egypt's bravest warriors. The exhibition will also delve into ancient Egyptian society, divine kingship, craftsmanship, and recent archaeological discoveries. From imposing statues of Ramses VI and Thutmose III to intricate royal jewelry and daily tools, the showcase reveals the artistic, spiritual, and historical brilliance of one of the world's most captivating civilizations.

Egypt's Akaoui Doesn't Follow Trends. It Crafts Timeless Jewellery.
Egypt's Akaoui Doesn't Follow Trends. It Crafts Timeless Jewellery. For four generations, Akaoui has practiced not just design, but devotion. What began as a modest jewellery shop in the Levantine port city of Akka—where the family once traded gemstones along salt-lined trade routes—has evolved into a fine jewellery house known for restraint, precision, and permanence. Today, the brand's legacy continues to unfold, one piece at a time. 'We don't follow trends,' a member of the Akaoui family tells SceneStyled. 'We create timeless beauty.' Each ring, bracelet, and pendant begins in Italy, in workshops where hand engraving and filigree are still practiced daily. 'Many of our pieces come from small ateliers where passion and tradition guide the process,' they explain. 'It's not just about luxury—it's about meaning.' Their latest collection draws from botany in both structure and setting. Pieces are photographed against ferns, petals, bark. A cuff mirrors the curve of an orchid. A pendant mimics the line of a cactus spine. Gemstones are set to catch the light like dew. These references to the natural world underline the brand's quiet philosophy: jewellery should grow into you, not just sit on you. 'Every piece we curate is more than just jewellery,' they add. 'It's a story.' And the story runs deep—through four generations of artisans, workshops, and hands that continue to shape each piece with intention. The effect is quietly exacting. Minuscule indentations, layered stones, and textures that refuse uniformity. Not bling, but craft. Not spectacle, but signal. 'When someone wears an Akaoui piece,' they say, 'we want them to feel like they're carrying something that truly speaks to them.' The brand continues to balance tradition and evolution—Italian technique and Egyptian soul. 'Egyptian jewellery is changing in an exciting way, blending heritage with new ideas,' they note. 'Akaoui is part of that shift, bringing high-quality design that honours where we come from and where we're going.' This is jewellery built for memory, not momentum. Each piece is an heirloom in the making—etched with history, shaped by hand, and worn with quiet conviction.
