Exclusive Video of the Restoration of the Room of Constantine in the Vatican Museums on You Tube

A new video entirely dedicated to the monumental restoration of the Room of Constantine one of the great four Vatican Rooms frescoed by Raphael and his school, recognized as an absolute masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance—has been published on the official YouTube channel of the Governatorate.

The video offers the public unique behind-the-scenes access to a complex restoration project that has revealed colors, details, and symbols long darkened by time. Thanks to the meticulous work of restorers, art historians, and technicians of the Vatican Museums, it was possible to recover the original chromatic intensity, deepen the understanding of often overlooked iconographic elements, and once again highlight the grandeur of the space dedicated to the figure of Emperor Constantine.

The narrative retraces all the operational phases: from cleaning techniques to discoveries, and through direct comparison with historical documents, offering viewers a clear and engaging account that also illustrates the contributions of contemporary technology to the conservation of artistic heritage.

With this new video, the Vatican Museums continue their commitment to cultural dissemination, making accessible to the wider public not only the works of art themselves but also the invaluable work that ensures their preservation for future generations.
