The work Ecce Homo arrives from Rome in a secure crate at the National Museum of Abruzzo (MuNDA) in L'Aquila, Italy, on June 9, 2026. One of the most significant masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance has been permanently added to the museum's collection. Antonello da Messina's Ecce Homo, recently acquired by Italy's Ministry of Culture, was unveiled at MuNDA, housed in the 16th-century Spanish Fortress, during the year in which L'Aquila is celebrating its designation as Italy's Capital of Culture 2026. Dating to the 15th century, the painting is considered one of the most intense examples of Antonello's work, reflecting the artist's ability to blend Italian artistic traditions with influences from Flemish painting. The rare double-sided panel depicts the dramatic face of Christ on the front and a penitent Saint Jerome set against a Northern European-style landscape on the reverse. Following an exhibition at the Italian Senate and a programme of analysis and restoration carried out by the Central Institute for Restoration, the work has found a permanent home in the museum's gallery dedicated to 15th-century art.

Professor Robin Coningham, UNESCO Chair on Archaeological Ethics and Practice in Cultural Heritage at Durham University and co-director of the excavations, attends a press conference in Kathmandu, Nepal, on February 11, 2026. A collaborative team of national and international experts from the Department of Archaeology, Government of Nepal, Lumbini Development Trust, and Durham University's UNESCO Chair uncovers Nepal's first example of an apsidal Buddhist temple within the ancient city of Tilaurakot-Kapilavastu, one of the best-preserved Early Historic cities and hinterlands in South Asia. A clear category of temple in South Asia, they are called apsidal as they have a curved end wall that defines the religious focus of the monument, with an entrance platform at the other end. The earliest known examples are cut into rock, with later monuments constructed out of stone, timber, or brick. The monument revealed at Tilaurakot-Kapilavastu, the first discovered in Nepal, follows this exact layout but is unusual in its location. It is a rare example of an apsidal temple constructed within a city rather than in a separate religious complex. The newly discovered apsidal structure is built near the center of the city of Tilaurakot-Kapilavastu over the remains of the city's earlier palatial complex. This central walled complex defines an area of 100 by 100 meters through a massive brick wall measuring 1.5 meters wide. After its abandonment, the complex becomes a focus for veneration, with Buddhist monasteries built over its ruined monumental walls. It is within the courtyard of one of these monasteries that the apsidal temple is built, enshrining and respecting an earlier Buddhist stupa within the earlier monastery.
