At the invitation of the Louvre, more than sixty works from the Neapolitan Capodimonte Museum have exceptionally taken their place on the walls of the Parisian museum. Paintings, drawings, objets d'art, and porcelain by great masters, including Masaccio, Bellini, Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, Caravaggio, and Guido Reni, join the works of the Louvre in its historic heart, particularly in the Grande Galerie, for the duration of an exhibition.
This book showcases the powerful and fruitful dialogue between these two collections of Italian art, among the richest and most extensive in the world. Specialists, writers, and curators from both institutions explain the origins and diversity of the Capodimonte Museum's collections and offer a cross-examination of Naples and Paris, highlighting the artistic exchanges that have punctuated the history of the two cities.
