Estense Gallery
About
Estense Gallery: this is one of the most important collections in Italy and reflects the Este family's interest in painting and sculpture, not to mention archaeology and the minor arts. Valuable items include the marble bust of Francesco I d'Este by Bernini, the portrait of Francesco I by Valasquez, Saint Anthony of Padua by Cosmè Tura, the Madonna and child by Correggio, a triptyque by El Greco and a Crucifix by Guido Reni. The nucleus of northern Italian paintings from the 14th to the 18th century is outstanding.
