Autentico gioiello del barocco romano, la Galleria Colonna fu commissionata a metà del 1600 dal Cardinale Girolamo I Colonna e dal nipote Lorenzo Onofrio Colonna. Fu inaugurata dal figlio di Lorenzo Onofrio, Filippo II, nell'anno 1700. Il progetto originario è dell'architetto Antonio del Grande; è stato quindi integrato, negli ultimi decenni del 1600, da Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Johan Paul Schor e Carlo Fontana. Fin dal primo momento, la Galleria è stata ideata come grande sala di rappresentanza per celebrare degnamente la vittoria della flotta cristiana sui turchi alla battaglia di Lepanto del 1571. Il comandante della flotta pontificia, Marcantonio II Colonna, viene raffigurato in vari momenti su tutta la volta della Sala Grande della Galleria e nella Sala della Colonna Bellica. L'affresco della volta sovrastante la Sala della Colonna Bellica è di Giuseppe Chiari e raffigura la presentazione in cielo di Marcantonio alla Vergine. La sala prende il nome dalla colonna in marmo rosso posta su un piedistallo al centro della sala, che richiama lo stemma della famiglia. I relativi intarsi illustrano scene di vita della Roma antica. Tra i tanti capolavori artistici presenti nella Sala della Colonna Bellica, vi segnaliamo lo splendido dipinto del Bronzino raffigurante Venere Cupido e Satiro. Di rilevante interesse sono anche i tre grandi dipinti di Michele di Ridolfo del Ghirlandaio raffiguranti La Notte, sopra il Bronzino, e, sulla parete opposta, L' Aurora, e Venere e Amore. Un ringraziamento a Roberto Foveon per la pp e a Nonno Baker per la piacevole compagnia nella visita.

Beyond the beauty of the image I wonder how did you suppress all the suppress visitors?

Angelo.s, I answer you: they simply weren't there at the time! And I'll give you my explanation of why Galleria Colonna is little visited.
1) Little known. It is not in fact part of the typical tour of tourists, especially because, being part of the Palazzo Colonna still inhabited by the Prince's family, it opens to the public only and exclusively on Saturday mornings;
2) The entrance fee is slightly expensive, being a private property and not a state museum;
3) Since there is no set duration for the exit - as for example at Galleria Borghese - just wait for saturday lunchtime and there are no more visitors!

You were right to propose it again because you made an exceptional shot, not so much to say, hello.
