Caravaggio exchange between New York and Naples.


Exchange of Caravaggio works between the Metropolitan in New York and Palazzo Zevallos Stigliano in Naples: the Neapolitan museum gets the Musici.

It is an exchange of works by Caravaggio that is taking place between Palazzo Zevallos Stigliano, Intesa San Paolo’s Neapolitan museum, and the Metropolitan Museum in New York. As part of the L’ospite illustre initiative, an exchange program undertaken by Intesa with major international museums, it will therefore be possible to see, from May 6 to July 16, Caravaggio’s Musici in the halls of Palazzo Zevallos. (In New York, on the other hand, will go the Martirio di sant’Orsola, which will remain at the Met until June 30 for an exhibition entitled Caravaggio’s last two paintings: the Neapolitan work will in fact be displayed alongside the Metropolitan’s Negation of St. Peter ).

It will be possible to see Michelangelo Merisi’s work that arrived from the United States of America during the museum’s opening hours. Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Cost for the ticket: 5 euros.
