If power had a face

As part of the exhibition The Face of Women. The Other Side of History, on display at the Royal Medal Collection, the Royal Museums of Turin and the Savings Museum present If Power Had a Face: Conversations between History and the Present Day: a series of talks exploring the evolution of the female image and the role of women in public life through the centuries.

The initiative stems from the collaboration between the two cultural institutions, which are united by a shared aim to promote the historical and artistic heritage by integrating it with the themes of financial education and economic empowerment.
