Beschreibung
The name of the room – also known as “Gallery“ – derives from the presence of the 18 porphyry and alabaster busts of the Twelve Caesars, with several replicas and the goddess Juno. The mounting was designed by the architect Antonio Asprucci, who conceived the furnishings based on the juxtaposition of a great variety of marbles. On the large ceiling are paintings by Domenico de Angelis. Inspired by the paintings in Pompeii, the architectural trompe l’oeil is the work of Giovanni Battista Marchetti (1730-1800), while the small oval medallions with the symbols of the Constellations, the circular grisailles with the Signs of the Zodiac, and the personifications of the four seasons were executed by Gioacchino Agricola. There are six niches in the walls with classical sculptures, including the so-called Borghese-type Artemis in Pentelic marble (120-130 C.E.). In the middle of the room is the Rape of Proserpina, the first autograph work of Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680), who executed it in one year in 1621-22.
