In 17th-century Rome, Cardinal Scipione Borghese, nephew of Pope Paul V, assembled one of the greatest art collections in history for his uncle’s villa. His eclectic taste combined works from ancient times through to his own contemporary Baroque artists, such as the tormented painter Caravaggio and the phenomenally talented sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini. This collection is still visible today in one of Rome's most popular museums - the Borghese Gallery. The Borghese Gallery contains Bernini's breathtaking statues Apollo and Daphne and Pluto and Persephone, six paintings by Caravaggio, as well as other masterpieces by Raphael, Correggio and Titian!
