Pinacoteca Baroque Room
Caravaggio’s Deposition anchors the Pinacoteca’s seventeenth-century Room XII. The octagonal room also offers a compact comparison with Poussin, Domenichino and Guido Reni.
Why go
These painters use narrative and emotion in different ways, and the shared room makes that contrast available without a long walk through the gallery. Caravaggio’s Deposition supplies a strong starting point, but the other paintings keep the stop from being about one celebrated name alone. The octagonal setting holds the comparison together.
What to look for
Caravaggio’s Deposition is displayed in Room XII.
Works by Poussin, Domenichino and Guido Reni share the room.
Useful to know
Compare Caravaggio with at least one of the other painters before leaving.
