A very wise person in antiquity had the foresight to put a lot of these statues in a safe place for people 18 centuries, give or take, later to enjoy them.
Thanks Darius, I was there at the museum exactly a year ago and so sad not to be able to travel from Australia this year. Hopefully next year we can get over there.
Hi Darius, absolutely love your videos. So fascinating. My favourite advice from you is “you gotta look up, you gotta look down, you gotta look out the windows”. It’s so true. Might I add, you gotta look behind you too. All the best. Cheers.
Love the work you do! Don’t forget to tell your audience that the courtyard was designed by Michelangelo. And are you going to ever do a video on the subterranean Pythagorean Vasilica the port of Majorian Rome? I have a 200 page document I put together on all the information I’ve collected over the years if you’re interested.
@@DariusArya I believe I also saw the original horses at St Mark's in Venice those same years. There were no horses inside. In fact, then, one could sit outside next to the horses and I have a photo of me doing just that. Strange.
It's amazing that these statues have survived, as the Romans themselves destroyed millions more over a thousand year period by melting some down for the metal, or grinding the marble for lime pits. When society collapses, one thinks of survival more than art.

Thank you!
Loved this museum, among so many others in Rome. Love visiting this museum virtually with you, thank you!
I appreciate it!
All of my visits to Rome I haven’t done the capitoline museum. Thanks for the tour!
Yes a great collection to visit
Thank you very much.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm always so excited watching your videos😊 Much love from Hamburg.
Many thanks!
Thanks. The Capitoline Museum is the NEATEST museum in the world!!!!!
Always a pleasure to check your new videos.
Amazing. Darius thanks for sharing
HI Darius, Wow what detail incredible work. what a clear camera great work Darius, I found it very interesting
Thanks - that means a lot- from 2 years ago- but I had a gimbal for my phone

I would love to have seen the colossal statue of Constantine when it was one. The head alone is so imposing and dramatically commanding.
I agree - so amazing
Look at Darius’s latest videos he posted one about the reconstructed statue which is in Milan
So Marcus Aurelius statue was brought inside only in 1985! That means I saw it outside when I was there in 1970/71.
Wow - yes

Thank you for this video share! Are the provincial reliefs originals or cast replicas?
Originals - marble

RE. the Hadrian statue, it must have taken considerble talent to sit a horse wearing only a tunic and underpants and with no stirrups.
Absolutely! (Marcus Aurelius)
I’ll didn’t this only survive because they thought it was Constantine?
Can you repeat that #. I don't think I got it.
Bel video
Nu se compară nici o istorie cu cea romană! Îmi place istoria antică, dar cea a Romei antice mă interesează în mod deosebit!
Erau strămoși noștri
@@InAeternumRomaMater erau deosebiți din toate punctele de vedere!Au stăpânit lumea aproape o mie de ani!

Less time in the foyers and more time in the rest of the collection, please.
Thanks, Darius. You make ancient Rome come alive.
Glorious. Thanks!
Thank you too!
Lovely!
Why the square holes in the Constantine statue?
Hair attachments or crown
@@DariusArya possible sunburst ?
My wonderful city 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Los bustos son originales o son copias? Gracias por tu labor!
