With over 450,000 visitors and an average of more than 3,000 entries per day, the CARAVAGGIO 2025 exhibition at Palazzo Barberini concluded on Sunday, July 20. It was one of the most important and ambitious projects ever dedicated to the work of Caravaggio (Michelangelo Merisi) and a flagship event of the 2025 Jubilee. Without a doubt, it is now the most successful exhibition in the history of Palazzo Barberini and the Gallerie Nazionali di Arte Antica.
“This exhibition, the result of enormous work, has placed the Gallerie Nazionali di Arte Antica and Palazzo Barberini at the center of the international cultural debate for the first time. In a year as important for Rome as the Jubilee, we are proud to have presented a project that has been talked about worldwide and that has been visited and loved by hundreds of thousands of visitors,” commented Thomas Clement Salomon, Director of the Gallerie Nazionali di Arte Antica.
