Museo Pietro Canonica, Art museum in Villa Borghese, Rome, Italy.
The museum contains a collection of sculptures, models, and sketches created by Pietro Canonica, displayed across seven exhibition rooms on the ground floor.
In 1927, the Municipality of Rome granted Pietro Canonica permission to use the Fortezzuola building as his residence and studio until his death in 1959.
The first floor exhibits Canonica's private apartment with 19th-century furnishings, Flemish tapestries, and a 17th-century Samurai armor, reflecting his international connections.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Sunday, with winter hours from 10:00 to 16:00 and summer hours from 13:00 to 19:00.
The collection includes works from Canonica's time at European courts, where he received commissions for portraits and monuments from royal families.
