The Vatican Museums
A visit to the Vatican Museums is part of every trip to Rome. It is the most museum visited in Italy, even if it does not appear in the rankings as it is part of the Vatican State.
The Museums were created at the behest of Pope Julius II, Raphael's patron
and Michelangelo, artists who left a profound mark on the interior
of the Museum in the part of the papal residences.
The Vatican Museums in Rome today exhibit one of the largest museum collections
important on the planet.
We start with ancient art: canvases, statues, hieroglyphic inscriptions, bronzes
votives accompany the visitor on a dense and rich path that ends
in rooms that house precious Mesopotamian and Assyrian finds.
The visit to the Pinacoteca is important where,
in the space of some rooms, you can admire works by Perugino, Raphael, Leonardo, Bernini, Caravaggio.
We always end up with the famous Raphael Rooms where
condensed into 4 rooms, some of the undisputed masterpieces of the
master from Urbino including the School of Athens, a wall frescoed with
main exponents of Greek philosophy. Aself-portrait appears in the fresco
of Raphael, who looks towards the observer, and a portrait of Michelangelo, in the character of Heraclitus.
With a leap to the upper floor you arrive at the Sistine Chapel which is accessed through a small door.
Visit to the Vatican Museums
After the entrance you go up to the first floor with an escalator that leads to the entrance
directly to the Egyptian Section, full of finds belonging to everyone
the periods of Egyptian history. Steles, statues, hieroglyphic inscriptions, bronzes
votivesaccompany the visitor on a dense and rich path that ends
in rooms that house precious Mesopotamian and Assyrian finds. The art
Egyptian style strikes for the hieratic charm of the figures and the richness of the
objects and reliefs present in the Assyrian section are true masterpieces
sculptures that embellished the doors and palaces of the Assyrian lords and sovereigns
like Ashurbanipal.
 Pine cone from the Temple of Isis to the Campus Martius (2nd century AD) It is difficult to visit all the rooms that make up the museum itinerary
Vatican in a single day. Not to be missed is the Pinacoteca where,
in the space of some rooms, you can admire works by Perugino, Raphael, Leonardo and Bernini. A special mention to the great Caravaggio, maestro
undisputed example of the exaggerated artistic expressiveness of the baroque style.
It is also worth going down to the famous Cortile della Pigna and taking a walk
walk, if the day and the time available allow it.
Going up to the second floor you reach the famous Raphael Rooms where
condensed into 4 rooms, some of the undisputed masterpieces of the
master from Urbino including the School of Athens, a wall frescoed with
main exponents of Greek philosophy. Aself-portrait appears in the fresco
of Raphael, who looks towards the observer, and a portrait of Michelangelo, in the character of Heraclitus.
With a leap to the upper floor you arrive at the Sistine Chapel which is accessed through a small door. Nowthey can
take photosbut they are only allowed without the use of flash. The look
he is attracted to the vault where, in an impeccable composition, he loses himself
between the powerful figures of the Sibyls and the Prophets and the suggestions of the Universal Creation, the Creation of Man and the Expulsion from Eden.
The entire chapel then displays a notable series of on the side walls masterpieces depicting the Life of Christ signed by Rosselli, Perugino, Botticelli.
 The Stories of Genesis on the ceiling (Michelangelo Buonarroti)On the main wall is the Last Judgment by Michelangelo:
in a centrifugal structure which has Christ as its judge
origin, the figures of the resigned Virgin and the deities develop Saints of the Church. The figures are shocking in their expressive power
of the angels of the Apocalypse sounding the trumpets of judgment
they wake the dead from their sleep. On the left the figures rise
to the sky taking back their bodies, to the right thedemons drag
downwards the damnedwhere a Charon uses the oar to spur
those condemned by the Judgment of Christ.
As everyone knows, the work caused a scandal due to its exhibition
of naked bodies in the genital parts and for this he was commissioned Daniele da Volterra to cover the parts in question with his trousers.
Responsible for the decision was the Master of Ceremonies of
Vatican Biagio da Cesena, who for this outrage was depicted
in the figure of Minosby the great, ironic, Michelangelo.
The spiral staircase that leads out of the Vatican Museums is a joy
for the eye, the last jewel of an unforgettable visit.
