Speranza

In 1733, LORENZO CORSINI made a great move which changed the nature of ROMAN SCULPTURE more than anything had been done since GIULIO II had established the BELVEDERE statue cout in the first years of the sixteenth century.

CORSINI bouth ALL the Albani antiquities AND MADE THEM THE
NUCLEUS of a
NEW MUSEUM
on the Campidoglio.
