guided tour
The reopening to the
public of
the Borghese Gallery,
has been greeted as the most important event which has taken
place in the art world in recent years.
This
museum houses the personal collection of Cardinal S cipione
Borghese, Pope Paul V's nephew, a preeminent personality in his
time, with a great passion for art and with the means
to accomplish his projects.
The
Gallery is immersed in Rome's most beautiful park, close to the
city's historical center.
The Borghese Gallery
has maintained its prestige and its works of art are exposed
today as they were in the past: furniture, paintings and
sculptures.
It is one of Rome's
richest and most interesting villas, the Borghese Gallery and
Museum
houses a vast and diverse collection of sculptures and paintings
produced by masters such as Bernini, Canova, Caravaggio and
Titian.
Your guide will lead you through the gallery's breathtaking
rooms and reveal the s ecrets,
stories and techniques behind the masterpieces.
Among the gallery's paintings we will see Titian's "Sacred and
Profane Love", Raphael's "The Deposition" and "Young Woman with
Unicorn", Caravaggio's "Madonna and Child with St. Anne" (Dei
Palafrenieri) and "Saint Jerome Writing".
We
will admire sculptures such as Bernini's "The Rape of
Proserpina" and "Apollo and Daphne" and Canova's "Pauline
Bonaparte".
In
other words, don't pass up this once in a lifetime
opportunity to admire such masterpieces, for which we must be
thankful to Cardinal Scipione Borghese's foresight.
Then, only on request, you can go for an enchanting stroll
though the Villa Borghese Gardens and enjoy the surprises and
tranquility of this Eden in the heart of busy Rome.
The
famous Villa Borghese is a truly magical setting, surrounded by
vast gardens filled with fountains, monuments and flora.
