On September 10, 2024, the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts (Moscow) hosted a presentation of the Catalog of the large-scale exhibition Three Times of Rome. Antiquity. Renaissance. Baroque. Within its framework, a fascinating discussion unfolded, summing up the results of this exhibition project.

The article makes an attempt to analyze the reasons for its popularity, as well as to summarize the issues raised by it. |
