His eclectic taste combined works from ancient times, Renaissance masters, and contemporary Baroque artists, such as the tormented painter Caravaggio, as well as the phenomenally talented sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Rocky Ruggiero, an expert in Renaissance art, examines the history of the Borghese Gallery and its collection of artistic treasures.
