The Galleria Spada in Spada Palace in Rome, Italy #160006300
Description
The Hall of the Popes or First Hall of Galleria Spada in Rome Italy. It conserves three portraits of the Cardinal Bernardino Spada, one by Giudo Reni and one by Guercino. The Galleria Spada is a part of the Palazzo Spada-Capodiferro, one of the most amazing Roman Renaissance buildings. The Galleria is a perfect example of the 17th century Roman noble families collecting as well as being one of the most important international museums of Baroque painting. It is particularly fascinating because it preserves the same atmosphere of a private residence as when il was home to Cardinal Bernardino 1594 - 1661 and Cardinal Fabrizio Spada 1643-1717, who are mainly responsible for the collection.
