THE CAPITOLINE MUSEUMS (Musei Capitolini) IN ROME; ITALY. The creation of the Capitoline Museums has been traced back to 1471; when Pope Sixtus IV donated a group of bronze statues of great symbolic value to the People of Rome. The collections are closely linked to the city of Rome; and most of the exhibits come from the city itself.COLOSSAL PORTRAIT OF CONSTANTIUS II (337-361 AD) OR OF HIS BROTHER CONSTANS (337-350 AD)Marble.
