Sala degli Animali

Hall of the Animals, Vatican Museums.

The display in the two rooms which together make up the hall of animals was set up under Pope Pius VI (1775 - 1799) with antique words of art, often much restored and sometimes completely re-worked, with the aim of creating a "stone zoo." Many artists worked on the sculptures in this display during the 1700s, the most important of which was Francesco Antonio Franzoni.

For the displays were chosen works of art selected for their links with nature and the chase. In this hall it is the animals who are the protagonists, and can be seen both in curious interactions with each other, and also in relations to heroes and gods of the ancient world. Colored marbles were used to allude to the colors of the coat or plumage of various animals or, by contrast, to confer a particular coloristic effect on a work of art.
