Rome's Vatican Museums holds 1 work by Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Van Gogh completed over 900 paintings in a decade, and seeing them in person reveals the extraordinary pace and emotional intensity of his working life. The impasto brushwork — paint applied in thick, urgent strokes — has a sculptural quality that transforms the experience of his most famous images.

The Vatican Museums constitute one of the world's largest museum collections — 54 galleries leading to the Sistine Chapel. Pre-book to avoid queues that routinely reach four hours; a guided tour is the most efficient way to see the highlights.
Planning your visit to Rome
The Vatican Museums should always be pre-booked — entry without a reservation can mean several hours of queuing. The Borghese Gallery requires booking weeks in advance as entry is strictly limited. State museums, including many Capitoline Museums venues, offer free entry on the first Sunday of each month.
