Today we announce our latest special exhibition taking a closer look at one of ancient Rome’s most infamous rulers – the emperor Nero. The show challenges traditional views of the emperor as a ruthless and eccentric tyrant: ow.ly/ylbP30rFldX #NeroExhibition 👇

#nerotour day 7: after following (backwards) the path of Vitellius' legions into Italy, marching from Aosta to Cremona, we too are in #Rome at last!

#nerotour day 6: #Aosta with its outstanding Roman remains. Parts of the city walls and gates, the theatre, the Arch of Augustus and so much more, all against the beautiful setting offered by the Alps. A visit to the Regional Archaeological Museum is also recommended!

#nerotour day 4: Parma has been really good to me. First the Veleia rooms and stunning pieces (including Leonardo's La Scapigliata) @PilottaParma then a very pleasant surprise: an exhibition on Arrigo Boito's Nerone 🤩
