Properly known as the ‘Accademia di Belle Arti e Accademia Clementina’, this was founded in 1706 by Giampietro Canotti. Built by Alfonso Torreggiani in 1735 upon the San Ignazio college for Jesuits. On display are extremely rare copies of original Roman works of art according to a Papal decree. ‘Il Duca di Curlandia’ was their greatest benefactor.
