Lonely Planet review

Here, in a vast belle époque palace, you'll find works by some of the most important exponents of modern Italian art. There are canvases by the macchiaioli (the Italian Impressionists) and the futurists (including Boccioni and Balla), as well as major works by Modigliani and De Chirico. International artists are also represented, with works by Degas, Cezanne, Kandinsky, Klimt, Mondrian and Henry Moore.

The wing to the left of the entrance has been transformed into a sculpture gallery. Pieces in dynamic white marble, such as Canova's majestic Ercole (Hercules), contrast dramatically against walls painted in rich, solid colours.

Make sure you take the opportunity to have a drink in the gallery's charming courtyard café.
