For one hundred years, the Amici di Brera have been quietly building a legacy by supporting the famous gallery’s collection. To celebrate this milestone, a new exhibition is pulling back the curtain on the group’s history, showcasing pieces that haven’t been seen by the public in years. It is a rare glimpse into the dedication that has helped shape the museum as we know it today.
The display doesn’t just feature paintings and sculptures; it uses historical photographs and original documents to tell the story of the foundation’s journey. By bringing these hidden treasures out of storage, the exhibition highlights the vital role that private generosity plays in keeping art history alive and accessible for everyone to enjoy.
