Bvlgari funded the restoration of more than 90 Greek and Roman marbles

Bvulgari and the Torlonia Foundation have collaborated on the restoration of more than 90 Greek and Roman sculptures from the Torlonia collection - the most important private collection of ancient art in the world that includes, in its entirety, more than 600 works. The sculptures will be the protagonists of the exhibition The Torlonia Marbles. Collecting masterpieces scheduled from October 14, 2020 to June 29, 2021 at Villa Caffarelli of which Bvulgari is also the main sponsor.

Bvlgari's involvement is part of the many initiatives promoted by the Roman brand for the protection and enhancement of the artistic heritage of the Capital. In Rome, the Torlonia Collection has grown and developed through acquisitions, archaeological excavations and the displacement of sculptures among the various residences of the Torlonia family. Bvlgari CEO Jean-Christophe Babin commented: 

«The vocation of a jeweler is to transform the gifts of nature into creations of timeless beauty. We could only enthusiastically support a project that aims to give back to the public this heritage of marble sculptures shaped over the centuries by the brilliant Greek and Roman artistic talent».
