The museum was founded in\u00a0in 1883, right after the unification of Italy (if it is so called. Not an expert in history), and it\u2019s main goal\u00a0was to preserve Italy&#8217;s artistic heritage.\u00a0Not only does it demonstrates Italian made works, but also some foreign pieces of recognition.\u00a0 \u00a0It&#8217;s main exhibition consists of examples of dadaist,\u00a0expressionist, impressionist, abstractionist, pop art, symbolist, neo renaissance decadent\u00a0nd verist works. That\u2019s a lot of complicated words that I wouldn\u2019t understand if not for my dear friend and personal expert in arts \u2013 Vera. I showed her all the pictures I took and she revealed to me all the mysteries of the exhibition. Thank you so much for making me feel less dumb :)))))<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I think that pictures will tell more than words from me, so enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><a
