ROCKY'S ITALY: Rome - The Barberini Palace

The Barberini Palace in Rome, Italy, was built for Pope Urban VIII (Maffeo Barberini) in the first half of the 17th century. Three stellar architects contributed to its design – Carlo Maderno, Francesco Borromini, and Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Today, the palace is the “National Gallery of Ancient Art” and contains paintings by Raphael (“La Fornarina”), Pietro da Cortona, and Caravaggio (“Judith Beheading Holofernes”)!
