The Torlonia Collection, considered the most important private collection of ancient art in the world, comprises exceptional Greek and Roman sculptures — sarcophagi, busts, and statues — assembled through acquisitions of major patrician collections and archaeological discoveries on the Torlonia estates.
Founded in the early 19th century and expanded under Prince Alessandro Torlonia, who established the Museo Torlonia in Via della Lungara, the collection embodies a century of collecting practices that shaped the study of antiquity.
