PALAZZO SPADA IS A MAGNIFICENT, yet lesser-known, palace located in the Regola district of Rome in the city’s historic center. It features an extraordinary art collection (Galleria Spada) which showcases works by the likes of Guido Reni, Titian, Guercino, Rubens, Caravaggio, and Artemisia Gentileschi to name a few.
The collection was assembled by the two brothers, Cardinal Bernardino and Virginio of the Spada family during the 17th-century. As visitors enter the building, they are greeted by the extraordinary Mannerist stucco façade, complete with elaborate and flamboyant decorative elements.
