LOS ANGELES (AP) — The J. Paul Getty Museum is partnering with Rome’s Capitoline Museums on an ambitious project that officials say will include joint exhibitions, conservation efforts and cultural exchanges between the two prestigious art centers.

Getty officials announced the collaboration in Los Angeles on Friday, the same day the stunning 4th century marble sculpture “Lion Attacking a Horse” went on display at the Getty Villa.
