Museums & Institutions - Milan, Lombardy, Italy
The itinerary on determining the authenticity of art and antiques is the feather in the Museum's cap, the only example in the world of a museum dedicated to the important question of determining the authenticity of art. Each room deals with a basic theme, from painting on canvas and wood to excavated pottery, antique furniture, amber and ivory. The itinerary culminates in the splendid tapestry room, where visitors can admire rugs and tapestries of different crafting techniques and provenances, and learn to recognize the characteristics of authenticity. The section is also equipped with test stations with microscopes and magnifying glasses. There is also a special itinerary designed for kids. In 2010, twenty years after its foundation, the Museum finally succeeded in giving the deserved space and importance to the Buddhist Art collection. A careful selection was made from among the numerous and remarkable items from Thailand, Burma, China and Japan to form the permanent exhibition entitled "East Asian Buddhist Art", considered one of the finest Italian collections of Indochinese art. Exhibition: "Leonardo Citizen of Milan" In 1483 Leonardo presented himself to the Duke of Milan, offering his services as an expert in military and industrial machines, engineer of navigable canals, painter, architect, sculptor and master of revels. This promise obliged him, during his twenty years at court, to undertake intense activity and exploit all his talent.
