MUSEO LECHI

The permanent exhibition, housed on the first floor of Palazzo De Tabarispresents a selection of about fifty paintings distributed in thirteen rooms, organised chronologically and thematically from the fifteenth to the nineteenth century.
Each work is accompanied by a descriptive panel with information and insights. Among the most notable artists are the great masters of Lombard, Venetian and Roman painting, such as Alessandro Bonvicino, known as Il Moretto, Giulio Campi, Giulio Cesare Procaccini, Giovan Battista Gaulli, known as Il Baciccio, Giovanni Battista Pittoni, Alessandro Magnasco, Pietro Bellotti and Luigi Basiletti.

An entire room is dedicated to the important works of Giacomo Ceruti, known as the Picket line: among these, the following stands out The woman who knits, considered one of his greatest pauperistic masterpieces.
The conference room also features a warehouse open to visitors upon request, with around forty paintings displayed in a picture gallery. For younger visitors, there is a game of spotting details among the works on display.
