# *Il non finito: fra poetica e tecnica esecutiva*

Group exhibition · Jan 15, 2026 – Jan 4, 2027 · on view · Pinacoteca

Guido Reni, Jacopo Palma il Vecchio, Garofalo and others

Unfinished paintings in the Pinacoteca Capitolina, shown with digital frames revealing their underdrawings and changes found by scientific imaging.

Paintings left incomplete by Garofalo, Palma il Vecchio and Guido Reni are examined with infrared reflectography, digital radiography, UV fluorescence and MA-XRF. Digital frames beside the works let visitors page through the underdrawings and the artists’ changes, such as Reni’s Anima beata, with its altered legs and wings, and Palma’s Christ and the Adulteress.

Reni’s room also offers macro photographs and a 3D version of the Anima beata for visitors with low vision. The show comes from the EAR research project of the Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma, curated by Costanza Barbieri and Claudio Seccaroni, with a catalogue from Artemide. Originally due to close in April 2026, it was extended.
