Second floor of the Palazzo Corsini in Via della Lungara in Trastevere, Rome. The Palazzo Corsini was erected for the Corsini family between 1730–1740 based on designs of Ferdinando Fuga. Today, the second floor of the palace hosts the offices of the National Academy of Science Accademia dei Lincei. During 1659–1689, the former Riario palace had hosted the eccentric Christina, Queen of Sweden, who abdicated, converted, and moved to Rome. Under her patronage, this was the site for the first meetings of the Roman Accademia dell`Arcadia.
