More than three hundred works, including paintings and sculptures, mark the exhibition itinerary at the Accademia Carrara and offer a five-century journey through the history of Italian art from the Renaissance to the 19th century, between masterpieces and collecting.
Accademia Carrara

Founded in 1796 from Giacomo Carrara, the Accademia Carrara is considered the museum of Italian collecting, because its collections are based entirely on legacies of enlightened patrons who wanted to increase its heritage by making it available to the city and the community.

The exhibition is organised in sixteen rooms of different sizes, which tell different stories. The first sequence is dedicated to theItalian art between Gothic and Renaissance on the Peninsula, with an emphasis on the conspicuous nucleus of works from the 15th century in the Po Valley and Veneto, with works by Pisanello, Mantegna e Belliniand on contemporary Tuscan production, where the paintings of Raphael e Botticelli.

The second sequence draws a path illustrating the figurative tradition between Lombardy and the Venetian mainland dominions, between the 15th and 18th centurieswith a focus on the Bergamo context, where they operated Lot, Moroni, Baschenis e Fra Galgario. Finally, the section dedicated to theNineteenth century with a focus on the events and protagonists of the Accademia Carrara School of Painting.
