From the 15th to the 19th century, the princely Torlonia family amassed a collection of 620 catalogued works of art. Ancient busts, reliefs, statues, sarcophagi, and decorative elements comprise something of a Torlonia family narrative. They also tell the story of a private collection and its migration into museums and institutions. The statues have now traveled north from the newly restored from Italy to Chicago’s Art Institute. Moving the colossal and priceless relics took months. Their next destination is Fort Worth. —Elena Clavarino
