Pinacoteca Di Brera: 100 Masterpieces

By: Lauber, Rosella

Through 100 masterpieces chosen from among the over 2000 works housed in the Pinacoteca di Brera, this volume offers an exciting journey through the history of pictorial art between the 13th and 20th centuries.

This book offers a privileged journey through the geography and history of Italian and international figurative culture kept at the Pinacoteca di Brera, Milan, with works spanning a chronological period from the 13th to the 20th centuries. The Pinacoteca, born within the Enlightenment culture as a testimony to the progress of the human spirit, remains today a dynamic and lively instrument of civilization. The book reconstructs the patronage and provenance of the paintings and the way in which they were received; it specifies their technical data, as well as introducing comments and in-depth studies.

In addition, the rich illustrative apparatus leads to continuous comparisons and new explorations.
