Exhibition celebrates 30 years of a fund for art from churches

Two masterpieces by Michelangelo da Merisi da Caravaggio, 'St. Francis in Meditation' and 'The Flagellation of Christ' will be juxtaposed with two copies that were likely made in the same era and are almost identical and the center of complex attributions and diagnostic investigations. These are the four works of 'Caravaggio nel Patrimonio del FEC, Il Doppio e la Copia', an exhibition curated by Giulia Silvia Ghia that will be at the Rome's National Gallery of Ancient Art at Palazzo Barberini from June 22 until July 16.

It was made possible through the Fondo Edifici di Culto, which owns many churches (about 800 as well as many other assets throughout the country, Ed.) and has an extraordinary number of works of art.
