The hall

Palazzo Nuovo - Salone

The great central hall has preserved its original wall decorations and its XVI century gilded wood coffered ceiling. 
In the centre we can see a row of statues in coloured marble, including two centaurs from Hadrian's Villa, both are the work of Greek sculptors. 
Other important sculptures, statues of emperors and reproductions of Greek masterpieces are also arranged along the wall.
