This is the closest ordinary people usually get to seeing the inside of the magnificent Farnese Palace in Rome
But this Spring (until late April), the building which has long been used as the French Embassy, is partly open because the ambassador did a bit of imaginative PR and has opened its treasures to the public for the first time.... and brought back a few of the Farnese treasures from Naples and the Louvre to allow people to see them in their original location, along with Rome's 2nd best ceiling and its Carracci frescoes: www.mostrapalazzofarnese.it/it/index.html (I had to check in my camera on going through the considerable entrance security so no photos of the magnificent exhibition or even the garden, amazing grand staircase or internal courtyard).
