Information: - The Borghese Collection is a collection of Roman sculptures, old masters and modern art collected by the Roman Borghese family, especially Cardinal Scipione Borghese, from the 17th century on. It includes major collections of Caravaggio, Raphael, and Titian, and of ancient Roman art. The Borghese also bought widely from leading painters and sculptors of his day, and Scipione Borghese's commissions include two portrait busts by Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Most of the collection remains intact and on display at the Galleria Borghese, although a significant sale of classical sculpture was made under duress to the Louvre in 1807. - Villa Borghese is a landscape garden in the naturalistic English manner in Rome, containing a number of buildings, museums (see Galleria Borghese) and attractions. It is the third largest public park in Rome (80 hectares or 197.7 acres) after the ones of the Villa Doria Pamphili and Villa Ada. The gardens were developed for the Villa Borghese Pinciana ("Borghese villa on the Pincian Hill"), built by the architect Flaminio Ponzio, developing sketches by Scipione Borghese, who used it as a "villa suburbana", a party villa, at the edge of Rome, and to house his art collection. The gardens as they are now were remade in the early nineteenth century. - The Madonna and Child with St. Anne ( Dei Palafrenieri ) is one of the mature religious works of the Italian Baroque master Caravaggio , painted in 1605 - 1606 , for the altar of Archconfraternity of the Papal Grooms ( Italian : Arciconfraternita di Sant'Anna de Parafrenieri ) in the Basilica of Saint Peter . The painting was briefly exhibited in the parish church for the Vatican , the church of Sant'Anna dei Palafrenieri on the Via di Porta Angelica in Borgo , near the Vatican . It was subsequently sold to Cardinal Scipione Borghese , and now hangs in his palazzo ( Galleria Borghese ) , where it shares space along with five other Caravaggios : Boy with a Basket of Fruit , David with the head of Goliath ( attributed to 1606 ) , Young Sick Bacchus , Saint Jerome Writing , and St John the Baptist in the Desert . While not his most successful arrangement , it is an atypical representation of the Virgin for its time , and must have been shocking to some contemporary viewers . The allegory , at its core , is simple . The Virgin with the aid of her son , whom she holds , tramples on a serpent , the emblem of evil or original sin . Saint Anne , whom the painting is intended to honor , is a wrinkled old grandmother , witnessing the event . Flimsy halos crown the upright ; the snake recoils in anti-halos . Both Mary and Jesus are barefoot ; Jesus is a fully naked uncircumcised child . All else is mainly shadow , and the figures gain monumentality in the light . If this painting was meant to honor the grandmother of Christ , it is unclear how the ungracious depiction of her wrinkled visage in this painting would have been seen as reverent or iconic . Further shock must have accrued , as stated by Bellori , at the Virgin Mary 's revealing bodice . One could speculate that the parallel diagonals of Jesus '' phallus and leg suggest that both battle the snake , with one its metaphorical equal . - The Galleria Borghese (English: Borghese Gallery) is an art gallery in Rome, Italy, housed in the former Villa Borghese Pinciana. At the outset, the gallery building was integrated with its gardens, but nowadays the Villa Borghese gardens are considered a separate tourist attraction. The Galleria Borghese houses a substantial part of the Borghese collection of paintings, sculpture and antiquities, begun by Cardinal Scipione Borghese, the nephew of Pope Paul V (reign 16051621). The Villa was built by the architect Flaminio Ponzio, developing sketches by Scipione Borghese himself, who used it as a "villa suburbana", a party villa at the edge of Rome.
