Continuo il racconto della mia visita ai Musei Vaticani.
Nella prima sala detta degli Orazi e dei Curiazi è possibile ammirare due statue di interesse:
La statua onoraria di papa Urbano VII Barberini - scolpita dal Bernini tra il 1635 e il 1640.
Il pontificie è represented in the rich trappings of official ceremonies: wearing the tiara on her head, characterized by a triple ring ornaments and gems.
The work was conceived by making significant variations to the model of the grand statue of the pontiff made bornzo few years ago for the tomb in the basilica of San Pietro.
The honorary statue of Pope Innocent X Pamphili . In 1645 the Conservatives
resolved to erect a bronze statue of the pontiff to be placed in the New Palace.
In 1646 the work was entrusted to Alessandro Algardi. The statue, even with surfaces not completely finished, was placed in the Palace of the Conservatives in 1650 before being transferred, twenty years later, in New Palace before being placed in the current room in 1818.
precisely those imperfections due to lack of fusion and the few cold-finished sculpture to give an extraordinary force.
