The “Rome Prize” of the German Academy Rome Villa Massimo is the most important award granted to distinguished artists who reside in Germany or of German nationality. The German Academy Rome falls under the jurisdiction of the Federal Government’s Commissioner for Cultural Affairs and Media of the Federal Republic of Germany. The award offers a ten-month residency at Villa Massimo in Rome (Italy) to nine internationally acclaimed artists, in the fields of architecture, composition, literature and visual arts. The institution was founded in 1910 by Eduard Arnhold, a Jewish citizen of Prussia, who bought the property and subsequently donated it to the Prussian State.
