One of the highlights of exploring was getting to see the fascinating It's outside the main area & much less frequented by tourists, which made it even more exciting to admire. There is even some ancient graffiti being preserved there.

I swung by the Palazzo Barberini () today and spent some time thinking about these 2 paintings. The 1st, Antonello de Saliba, 1520, the 2nd, Francisco Pagano, 1472-1476. So different, yet the head tilt & mouth are nearly identical.

...There were several brilliant galleries dedicated to the art of puppetry & marionettes. 1st pic is of curious 19th/early 20th century marionettes, 2nd is of 18th century examples, & 3rd pic is a theme I sensed in the painted backdrops for marionette shows 🧔🏻⚔️🧔🏻

...Discovered in Ostia in 1959, it's the most intact and complete example of inlaid marble decoration (opus sectile) ever found. It's beautifully presented and documented (in Italian & braille.) Surprising details include portraits, attacking lions & even octopus!

One thing I particularly like about museums like the Galleria Doria Pamphilij, is the overabundance of detail everywhere: ceilings, odd corners (hello, St. Sebastian!), patterned decorative wall painting & sculptural curtain tie-backs.

Though a common design strategy, I still love it when museums use exhibition objects as clear inspiration for the graphic identity of an exhibition. Here, the newly opened "Feathers: Fashion and the Fight for Wildlife" .

Ahhhh... Sometimes you get to sit in the El Greco gallery all by yourself. Detail, Laocoön, ca. 1610-1614.

Even without reading the exhibition label, it's clear from the eyes alone that this is a sketch of a mesmerizing psychic. Table-turning, or Portrait of a Medium, ca. 1906. 🌀🌀

...it's not all drawings though. Many of the paintings are on loan from private collections, so this exhibition is a unique opportunity to experience them. I was immediately captivated by the jovial mug of Docteur Devaraigne, 1917.
