About the piece
Painted in 1828 by Ditlev Martens, this work commemorates the visit of Pope Leo XII to the Roman studio of celebrated Danish sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen. The composition masterfully balances the immense scale of the white plaster casts with the human drama of the official visit, all set within the atmospheric, beam-roofed workshop near Piazza Barberini.
