Abstract

CAPODIMONTE: THE MUSEUM EXIT OUTDOORS. The royal site was born to indulge the hunting passion of Carlo di Borbone (1735). Later on the king thought abaut building a royal palace (1737); the construction of the site took about a century. The park was the great pride of the Neapolitan royal families (Borbone, Bonaparte, Murat, Borbone), it is formed by a complex plan that integrates the wood with the gardens and cultivations area. During the nineteenth century the layout of the park was modified for both new acquisition of property and trasformation of existing; the design becam more organic and the English Garden was finally introduced in Naples. Architects, gardeners and botanists (Medrano, Canevari, Sanfelice, Astarita, Fuga, Niccolini, Giordano, the Biancour, Dehnhardt) had worked in these hundred years contributing to the final result. The separation of the palace from the park occurred when the palace was transformed into a museum (1957); only recently the park has been the subject of a renewed interest – the restoration of the Torre farmhouse – and in these years (2015), the palace-museum and park are again managed together by the Direzione del Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte. After this managerial restructruring, we intend to examine the park’s emergencies: some were born before the royal site, other ones ransformed for contingent needs.
