Old Masters Of the Universe; Exquisite Roman Collection Summering at National Gallery

The Washington Post | June 17, 1996| | Copyright

Come late September, it will again be possible to enter Rome's grand Doria Pamphilj palace and -- amid frescoed, mirrored splendor -- see one of the world's greatest private collections of Old Master paintings and sculptures.

Meanwhile, the cream of that collection can now be seen in "Masterpieces From the Palazzo Doria Pamphilj" at the National Gallery West Building. The 10 paintings and two sculptures, among them major works by Velazquez, Caravaggio, Raphael, Titian, Guercino and Bernini, are spending this rare summer abroad while the Renaissance palace back home undergoes renovations.
