THE CAPITOLINE MUSEUMS (Musei Capitolini) IN ROME; ITALY. The creation of the Capitoline Museums has been traced back to 1471; when Pope Sixtus IV donated a group of bronze statues of great symbolic value to the People of Rome. The collections are closely linked to the city of Rome; and most of the exhibits come from the city itself.鈥?Portrait of DIONYSIUS (also Dionysios or Dionysis) God of the grape harvest; winemaking and wine Sculpture from a Greek original of the 4th century BC.
