Caravaggio Exhibition at Palazzo Barberini
-
Barberini Palace is another Roman palace worth visiting for its splendor and collection of art. In 1625 the Barberini family purchased the Palazzo Sforza and other properties in the area, which were all to be incorporated to the Barberini palace we see today in Rome. Upon the death of Carlo Maderno, the first architect of the project, Gian Lorenzo Bernini succeeded as chief architect in 1629. Today it houses the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica, the main national collection of antique paintings in Rome.
-
A historic exhibition bringing together rarely seen Caravaggio masterpieces from prestigious collections worldwide. Organized in collaboration with Galleria Borghese, this event offers a unique opportunity to admire works never before exhibited in Rome, alongside newly discovered paintings and iconic masterpieces. A must-see for art lovers and Caravaggio enthusiasts alike.
