Quirinale Palace
Rome, Italy

In the Hall of Augustus the central window of the right wall was reopened in 2005. The gold decoration remained protected and hidden for almost two centuries and today it is intact and bright; shows the heraldic symbols of the tower and the crowned double-headed eagle present in the coat of arms of Pope Clement XIII Rezzonico, who commissioned these decorations in 1763 to the painter Giovanni Angeloni.
