Places to See Neapolitan Paintings

I recently came across the works of Luca Giordano, a master of Neapolitan Baroque painting. One of his notable pieces is titled "Saint John of Capistrano Appears Before Saint Peter of Alcantara in Glory." The dynamic composition, with Saint Peter seated diagonally and the contrasting structure of Saint John of Capistrano, left a strong impression on me. Another remarkable work is "The Burial of Christ," which conveys the careful and concerned expressions of those moving the deceased Jesus. The painting "Saint Peter Martyr in Glory" caught my attention as well. According to the plaque, it was a collaborative work by two artists, Lorenzo de Caro and Leonardo Antonio Olivieri. Lastly, Giacinto Diano's "The Immaculate Conception of the Virgin" stood out for its bright and warm color palette, perfectly complementing the depiction of the Virgin Mary. If you're looking for a place to closely admire Neapolitan paintings, I highly recommend visiting the Bari Art Museum.
