Overview

The Galleria Borghese is among the most famous art galleries in Rome. This museum complex houses a large part of the Borghese Collection of paintings, sculptures and antiquities, initiated by Cardinal Scipione Borghese, nephew of Pope Paul V and avid collector of works by Caravaggio, who is well represented in the collection with the Boy with Basket of Fruit, Saint Jerome Writing, Sick Bacchus and others.

It is precisely the works of Gian Lorenzo Bernini that make up a significant percentage of his production of secular sculpture, starting with early works such as the Goat Amalthea with Child Jupiter and Faun and Aeneas, Anchises and Ascanius up to the dynamic Rape of Proserpine, Apollo and Daphne and David (1623) , considered seminal works of Baroque sculpture. In the Galleria Borghese there are several portrait busts, including one of Pope Paul V and two portraits of one of his first patrons, Cardinal Scipione Borghese.

Galleria Borghese

The Apollo and Daphne group, made by Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680) between 1622 and 1625, was originally leaning against the wall bordering the chapel. It was moved to its current position at the end of the 18th century, when the furnishings of the room were conceived in relation to the sculpture, as documented in a drawing by the French architect Charles Percier (1764-1838). An explicit reference to Apollo is also the colossal marble head of the deity, a work from the 2nd century BC.
