La famiglia Nuvolone in concerto (The Nuvolone Family in Concert) ***Temporarily closed***
The Pinacoteca civica (Art Gallery) has recently acquired eight important paintings for its own collections from the “Sant’Anna” Hospital’s Quadreria, thanks to an agreement with ATS Insubria (Local Health Protection Agency). “Campo quadro”, the contemplative space on the first floor of Palazzo Volpi, now unveils to the public the first of these valuable works: the Ritratto della famiglia Nuvolone in concerto (Portrait of the Nuvolone family in concert), by the seventeenth-century painters and brothers, Carlo Francesco and Giuseppe Nuvolone.
