The splendid small palace that hosts the Borghese Gallery was built at the beginning of the seventeenth century as the private residence of the Borghese family. From the beginning it housed the collection of cardinal Scipione, nephew of Pope Paul V Borghese. In 1902 the Italian State purchased the rest of the collection and the palace. Currently the collection consists of sculptures and mosaics, sixteenth-seventeenth century paintings. They include masterpieces by Perugino, Pinturicchio, Correggio, Rubens, Raphael (Deposition) Titian (Sacred and profane love, Venus blindfolding Love) Caravaggio (Youth with a fruit basket, the Madonna of the footmen, David with Goliath's head) and sculptures by Gian Lorenzo Bernini (Apollo and Daphne, the Rape of Proserpina, David) and Canova (Paolina Borghese). Follow me on this tour and we will discover together the secrets, history and beauty of these magnificent works of art! If you love art as much as I do, this is a tour you can't miss.
