TALES OF LIGHT: AN IMMERSIVE JOURNEY THROUGH THE HISTORY OF GALLERIA BORGHESE
An extraordinary and immersive journey through the history of Galleria Borghese, Tales of Light is a brand-new video mapping experience that will illuminate the rear façade of the museum, bringing to life centuries of history, art, and transformation that have made this one of the most beloved cultural destinations in the world.
The projections will run until October 11, 2025, Friday and Saturday, starting at 9:15 p.m., with multiple showings each evening.
Through a spectacular artistic projection, Galleria Borghese will become a vibrant, living screen, retracing the key moments in its creation and evolution: from Cardinal Scipione Borghese’s purchase of the land outside the city walls in the 17th century, to the construction of the villa as the ideal space to house an unparalleled collection, and through to the many historical events, architectural projects, garden transformations, and curatorial layouts that have shaped its story over the centuries.
