Attributions to Renaissance masters or to their Tuscan workshop (Fra Angelico, Filippo Lippi, Piero di Cosimo, Ghirlandaio, Jacopo Pontormo), Venetian (Lorenzo and Giandomenico Tiepolo) and Ferrarais (Cosmè Tura).
And more sculptures, enamels and ivories, medieval drawings and illuminations.
Including a handwritten book of barely five centimeters executed in 1494 by the Duke of Milan for the King of France.
An engraving room with no less than sixteen labyrinthine prisons imagined by Piranesi.
All accompanied by a few contemporary counterpoints (Ettore Spalletti or Vik Muniz).
This is the representative selection of the collection of the Venetian Giorgio Cini Foundation, currently visible at the Hôtel de Caumont in Aix-en-Provence.
