6Naples – The Soul of Baroque Art
Beneath its chaotic energy, Naples hides a wealth of artistic treasures. The Capodimonte Museum features masterpieces by Titian, Caravaggio, and Masaccio, while the National Archaeological Museum boasts one of the world’s richest collections of Greco-Roman art, including mosaics from Pompeii.
Caravaggio’s The Seven Works of Mercy inside Pio Monte della Misericordia captures Naples’ blend of faith and drama. Stroll through the city’s historic center and you’ll find baroque churches adorned with frescoes, sculptures, and gilded altars that radiate emotion and grandeur. Naples is art in its most passionate, untamed form.
