Bernini's sculptures
Marvel at Gian Lorenzo Bernini's breathtaking masterpieces, including the dramatic Apollo and Daphne and The Rape of Proserpina. Your guide will share fascinating stories about how Bernini brought marble to life with movement and emotion during the height of the Baroque period.
Caravaggio's paintings
Next, you'll encounter the powerful works of Caravaggio, known for his dramatic use of light and shadow. See the introspective Sick Bacchus and the vibrant Boy with a Basket of Fruit, both reflecting the artist's turbulent genius and revolutionary style.
