Square Vestibule and Apoxyomenos Cabinet

The Square Vestibule introduces the Pio Clementino sculpture sequence through the adjacent Apoxyomenos Cabinet. Pause here for the athlete statue before moving into the museum’s larger classical rooms.

Square Vestibule and Apoxyomenos Cabinet

Why go

The connected spaces make a useful opening to this part of the museum. The vestibule marks a transition in the route, while the cabinet gives one athlete sculpture room to command attention. That tighter setting makes the figure easier to study before the display expands into courts and halls.

What to look for

  • The vestibule leads into the Pio Clementino classical collection.
  • The Apoxyomenos stands in a cabinet adjoining the vestibule.

Useful to know

  • Use this as an orientation stop before exploring the larger sculpture rooms.
