Opening of the Fifth Dialogue

FOCUS ON THE DIALOGUE – The Pinacoteca celebrates the Fifth Dialogue “New Perspectives on the 18th Century. Pompeo Batoni and Milan” and the new reinstallation. On June 8th, the museum will be open from 8.30 am to 7.15 pm (ticket office closes at 6.40pm) with free admission.

The Pinacoteca di Brera’s new and highly original dialogue of masterpieces entitled “New Perspectives on the 18th Century. Pompeo Batoni in Milan” is due to run from 8 June to 1 October 2017.
The fifth dialogue is important for the history of the Pinacoteca itself as a modern museum, a “product” of the 18th century, the Age of Enlightenment and the French Revolution. The building hosting the Pinacoteca was transformed by order first of the Empress Maria Theresa, to whom the Maria Teresa Room in the Biblioteca Braidense is dedicated, and then of Napoleon, who decreed that it should be opened to the public in 1809.
