Beautiful Italy exhibition running until September 2011

As part of the 150 years of independence celebration a new exhibition started this month. Within the impressive setting of the Scuderie Juvarriane at the Reggia di Venaria, more than 300 Italian masterpieces reveal the progress of art from the medieval period to the eve of 1861 by means of the pre-Unification capitals: Turin, Florence, Rome, Milan, Venice, Genoa, Bologna, Naples and Palermo.

The exhibition shows the image of the various cities – their culture, traditions and historic-artistic heritage – as seen by the major historical artists: Giotto, Beato Angelico, Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo, Botticelli, Bronzino, Titian, Veronese, Correggio, Caravaggio, Rubens, Tiepolo, Canova, Hayez and many more. A path that reveals the profile of Italian art and style.
