For our one full day in Naples, Charlie and I thought we would go to an archeological museum out of town, but the taxi driver called the museum and found out that we needed a reservation … and they were full for the day. So he suggested we try a different museum, and we wound up at the Museo di Capodimonte on top of a hill on the north side of town. The museum is in a palace that was built starting in 1738 for King Charles of Bourbon, and it has been used as a home for great works of art since then. You can look it up in wikipedia to learn more about this palace. Today it is a gorgeous museum with many historical art treasures. I include photos of a few favorites below: knowledgable art connoisseurs will appreciate these gems!
Wow…that Warhol is incredible! Very cool find.
Yes it’s an amazing work of art, definitely a fun surprise.
