Room of the Landscapes

The Room of the Landscapes, besides some "entrance gifts" of considerable significance, such as those by Peter Francis Garolli (1682), Giovanni Paolo Pannini (1719) and John Parker (1756), includes over 25 works from the Rosa bequest. They are unified by their excellent quality, and for belonging to a genre of painting—landscape, in fact—alien to the academic tradition and yet central in the trends on collecting prompted by the phenomenon of the Grand Tour.
