Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica, National art museum in Rome, Italy
The museum operates in two historic palaces, Palazzo Barberini and Palazzo Corsini, containing over 3,000 paintings from the medieval period through 1800.
The institution opened its doors in 1893 and expanded through significant acquisitions, including collections from Torlonia, Monte di Pietà, and Henriette Hertz's donation in 1915.
The collection includes masterpieces by Caravaggio, Raphael, Holbein, Titian, and El Greco, representing the development of European painting across multiple centuries.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 8:30 and 19:00, with complete wheelchair accessibility in both palace locations.
Pietro da Cortona's ceiling fresco in Palazzo Barberini's central salon depicts the Allegory of Divine Providence, demonstrating the Barberini family's influence.
