Ancient Roman art at its best
Palazzo Massimo hosts all of the best Roman sculptures you will find, adding the painted garden in the house of Livia (Augustus’ wife and often called Rome’s first Empress). Livia had her dream garden painted in a 360 degree view. Think twice if you think painting was invented in the Renaissance.

Mussolini’s interpretation of Roman art
Mussolini had his Stadio Olimpico built mimicking ancient stadiums in Greece. He added gigantic marble statues to make his point of masculine virtues. Adding the pines against the backdrop of the new Stadio Olimpico (home today to AS Roma football club) it makes for a dramatic view. Next to the outside stadium it’s worth visiting the inside swimming pool with massive mosaics.

Caravaggio at his best
May be the best work Caravaggio left in Rome he produced for the French. In three large works he evokes the life of Saint Matthew in his unique chiaroscuro and dark red blooded style.
