SECOND FLOOR - ROOM XII

Paintings and  sculptures

The room is dominated by a big Portray of a gentleman (probably a member of the Pepoli family from Bologna) by Tiburzio Passerotti (1596), one of the last important paintings donated to the State Museum (1958).

Very interesting are also other works in this room donated in the 19th and 20th centuries, among which worth mentioning are the 16th century panel paintings, once attributed to the Ghirlandaio, depicting The Virgin with the Child and two angels and Saint Sebastian, and the paintings belonging to the many donations by Count Carlo De Bruch (1865).

Particularly remarkable are also the two rare paintings on copper by Aniello Falcone and the two wings of the small altar portraying an Annunciation in the Perugian style.
