Exhibition of one of the Renaissance masterpieces: the Portrait of Young Lady by Antonio Allegri known as the Correggio (c.1489-1534).
The work, an exceptional loan from the Saint Petersburg Hermitage Museum, arrives five centuries after its execution, around 1520, thanks to an agreement signed by the Town Council of Reggio Emilia with the Russian institution.
The exhibition will give the opportunity to reveal many still uncertain aspects of the painting: the name of the person portrayed, the explanation of the marks and the symbols adorning it, the purposes it was painted for.
