MUSEO ARCHEOLOGICO NAZIONALE, Napoli












Pentru toti cei care vin la Napoli, o vizita la muzeul de arheologie e obligatorie...si aceasta pentru ca muzeul de la Napoli este unul dintre cele mai importante din lume, atat prin calitatea colectiei pe care o are cat si pentru cantitate ei...in mod principal obiecte provenind din perioada greco-romana. Principalele colectii: Colectia Farnese ( piese de la Roma si imprejurimi), Colectia Pompeiana (piese provenind de la Pompei, Ercolano, Stabie si zona vezuviana, colectia borbonica), Colectii minore, (donatii sau achizitii, ex: Borgia, Stevens, Santangelo, Spinelli etc) si Colectii vari, provenind din zona Napoli, Caserta. Cladirea care gazduieste muzeul reprezinta la randul ei una din cladirile monumentale din Napoli, construirea ei incepand cu anul 1585.
The Naples National Archaeological Museum (Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli) is located in Naples, Italy, at the northwest corner of the original Greek wall of the city of Neapolis. The museum contains a large collection of Roman artifacts from Pompeii, Stabiae and Herculaneum. The collection includes works of the highest quality produced in Greek, Roman and Renaissance times. The museum hosts extensive collections of Greek and Roman antiquities. Their core is from the Farnese Collection, which includes a collection of engraved gems (including the Farnese Cup, a Ptolemaic bowl made of sardonyx agate and the most famous piece in the "Treasure of the Magnificent", and is founded upon gems collected by Cosimo de' Medici and Lorenzo il Magnifico in the 15th century) and the Farnese Marbles.

Marbles

The greater part of the museum's classical sculpture collection largely comes from the Farnese Marbles, important since they include Roman copies of classical Greek sculpture, which are in many cases the only surviving indications of what the lost works by ancient Greek sculptors such as Calamis, Kritios and Nesiotes.

  • The Farnese Hercules, which fixed the image of Hercules in the European imagination.
  • The Farnese Atlas is the oldest extant depiction of Atlas from Greek mythology, and the oldest view of the Western constellations, possibly based upon the star catalog of Hipparchus
  • The Farnese Bull, widely considered the largest single sculpture ever recovered from antiquity.
  • The group Harmodius and Aristogeiton, a Roman copy of a bronze work that once stood in the Agora of Athens
  • The Venus Kallipygos
  • The Farnese Artemis, again a Roman copy of a Greek original
  • a collection of busts of Roman emperors
  • another set of Roman sculptures (again mainly copies of Greek work) that (like the Hercules) once stood in the Baths of Caracalla in Rome.
  • Egyptian Collection

    The museum has the third largest collection of Egyptian artifacts in Italy, after the Vatican Museum and the Museo Egizio in Turin. It is made up primarily of works from two private collections, assembled by Cardinal Borgia in the second half of the 18th century, and Picchianti in the first years of the 19th. In the recent rearrangement of the galleries the two nuclei have been exhibited separately, while in the connecting room other items are on display, including Egyptian and "pseudo-Egyptian" artefacts from Pompeii and other Campanian sites. In its new layout the collection provides both an important record of Egyptian civilization from the Old Kingdom (2700-2200 B.C.) up to the Ptolemaic-Roman era.[1]
