Exhibition at the Musée du Louvre, Paris, 7 June 2023 - 8 January 2023
Once the hunting residence of the Bourbon sovereigns, Capodimonte is now home to one of Italy's largest museums and one of Europe's most important picture libraries, in terms of both the number and exceptional quality of the works it houses. The Neapolitan museum is one of the only museums on the Italian peninsula whose collections are able to present all the schools of Italian painting.
This exhibition catalogue brings together over sixty works from the Capodimonte Museum on display at the Louvre, including paintings, drawings, objets d'art and porcelain by great masters such as Masaccio, Bellini, Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, Caravaggio and Guido Reni. The book offers a powerful dialogue between two of the richest and most extensive collections of Italian art in the world.
Specialists, writers and curators from both institutions explain the origin and diversity of the Capodimonte Museum's collections, and offer a cross between Naples and Paris, highlighting the artistic exchanges that have marked the history of the two cities.
