Age before beauty? Not when it comes to art! See both combined at Palazzo Barberini, home to Renaissance highlights from Raphael, Caravaggio and more. See the frescoed ceiling, crucifixes and works by regional painters of popes and cardinals and get free access to Palazzo Corsini.

See sculptures, bronzes, and paintings by Beato Angelico, Pieter Paul Rubens, Guido Reni and explore this prototypical Baroque palace from the inside out. A royally artistic treat in Rome.

Insider tip

The model for La Fornarina was a baker's daughter named Margherita Luti. She was known to be Raphael's mistress and muse. On her upper arm she sports a bracelet with 'Raphael Vrbinas' written on it, the Renaissance equivalent of a high school girl wearing her boyfriend's letter jacket.
