Farewell to Guido Cornini
In making this sad announcement, the Directorate of the Vatican Museums mourns the sudden and untimely passing, yesterday in Rome at the age of 65, of the art historian Guido Cornini, Director of the Department of Arts and Curator of the XV-XVI Century Art Section: a refined, competent and courteous scholar.
His passing is a great loss for the world of art, for all the family of the Governorate of Vatican City State, and for the community of the Pope’s Museums, which extends a warm embrace to his relatives and friends.
