ROME, Sept. 2 (Xinhua) -- The largest-ever exhibition of the works of Renaissance maestro Raphael in the Italian capital attracted over 162,000 visitors, a figure organizers described as "a great success" considering that the event coincided with the coronavirus emergency.

The official attendance figure was announced on Wednesday -- three days after the closure of the exhibition on Aug. 30 -- by the Scuderie del Quirinale in Rome, where the exhibition was held in cooperation with the Uffizi Galleries in Florence.
