The room was full of broken statues, or fragments, as Giovanni Barracco liked to call them. They made a nice composition.
Inscription on back of card:
Giovanni Barracco set out to create 'a museum of comparative antique sculpture'. He wrote: 'a certain number of well-chosen fragments suffice... to compose a concise history of sculpture... Fragments are by their very nature clothed in great poetry... [To imagine them whole] a mental effort [is needed]... that is very dear to people with [a] mobile, cultivated imagination.'
This card is blank inside.
The back side is printed with the following:
The work's title, the year it was made, the medium, the artist's name, and contact info.
There may be an inscription, which is subject to change.
