 Museo Pietro Canonica Pietro Canonica (1869-1959) was an internationally-feted sculptor and the Pietro Canonica Museum is one of Rome's hidden gems. The museum is housed in La Fortezzuola (the small fortress), a 17th century building in the grounds of Villa Borghese, where Canonica lived and worked from 1927 until his death in 1959. In addition to seeing a wide range of Canonica's work, it is also possible to visit his richly-furnished apartment.  Apartment of Pietro Canonica Comments are closed.
