The hall
In this room paintings made by artists of various geographical and cultural origins are exhibited, active in Rome during the seventeenth century. The city summoned painters from all over Italy and Europe, attracted by the prospect of success and earnings and the possibility of being able to study closely the great artistic records of the past.
