Expositions
Modern Art (from the XV to the XIX century)
Following the discovery of memorabilia on Roman antiquities market, including some documents and a portrait of Count Antonio Aldini, secretary of state of the Kingdom of Italy, the exhibition presents a series of views by Felice Giani representing the house of Count Aldini at Montmorency. The eight large watercolour drawings in the graphic collection of the Museum are part of a wider series of views Giani dedicated to the French house of the Count that includes other four large format watercolours preserved in the Pinacoteca Nazionale of Bologna. Graphic works which, taken together, represent also a concrete evidence of the long relationship between Aldini the Piedmontese artist, started in 1805 with the decoration of Palazzo Aldini in Bologna and continued, between 1812 and 1813, with the frescoes of the Montmorency building.
