Description

Palazzo Barberini National Gallery of Ancient Art

Over more than sixty years later, Palazzo Barberini opens the door to show the newfound magnificence of the baroque palace and the treasures of the National Gallery of Ancient Art. 34 rooms and a permanent collection of about 500 works, like those of the great masters of Italian and foreign painting including Raphael and Caravaggio, and the works of the eighteenth century, that, for reasons of space, were lying in the depots: masterpieces by Batoni, Mengs, van Wittel, Canaletto and Career, finally exposed to the public. A path that ends with the splendid Hall of columns, with the great fountain of Bacchus and naturalistic decorations that seem to reflect the adjacent gardens, a gem hidden over 50 years by the Circolo Ufficiali that used it as kitchens and food storage, and now rediscovered with a fine restoration by Laura Cherubini.
