Capitoline Museums
The Capitoline Museums are a group of civic art and archaeological museums located on Rome's Capitoline Hill. Their principal buildings, the Palazzo dei Conservatori and the Palazzo Nuovo, face each other across Michelangelo's Piazza del Campidoglio; the collections emphasise Roman sculpture and civic antiquities such as the Equestrian Statue of Marcus Aurelius, the Capitoline Wolf and the Dying Gaul.

As it stood in 1734
What Capitoline Museums looked like in its prime.
A stone-clad palazzo row facing a broad geometric piazza: tall travertine pilasters and pedimented window frames rise from a rusticated ground floor of deep portals, with ochre plaster panels between the stone orders. A heavy entablature and a balustraded roofline punctuated by marble statues silhouette against the sky. The paved Piazza del Campidoglio displays radiating stone patterns and the raised bronze equestrian statue occupies a central pedestal, with the grand staircase approaching the square.
