The National Gallery of Ancient Art is housed in the Palazzo Barberini, which was built for Barberini Pope Urban VIII in the 17th Century. Here is the popular fresco, ‘Triumph of the Divine Providence’ by Pietro da Cortona.

Visitors can see works by Raphael, Caravaggio, Canaletto, Vanvitelli, Pietro da Cortona, Guercino, Domenichino, Titian, Tintoretto and others.
