The show

The BPER Banca Gallery, from 17 March to 2 July 2023 , is offering a new study dedicated to Emilian painting from the 14th to the 18th century at the art gallery in via Scudari 9 in Modena .

The exhibition “In the rooms of art. Unveiled paintings of ancient masters”, curated by Lucia Peruzzi , ideally continues the itinerary presented by the BPER Banca Gallery in 2017 – “A casket for art” – offering visitors the opportunity to discover unpublished masterpieces of the Modena nucleus, once placed to decorate the offices of the building.

Among the main works on display are The Continence of Scipio by Francesco Vellani, the Holy Family in the carpenter's workshop by Giuseppe Maria Crespi and the Death of Priam by Giovan Gioseffo Dal Sole.


The exhibition itinerary also includes paintings by Lippo di Dalmasio, Francesco Zaganelli, Innocenzo Francucci known as Innocenzo da Imola, Bartolomeo Ramenghi known as il Bagnacavallo, Orazio Samacchini, Alessandro Mazzola, Annibale Carracci, Ludovico Carracci, Carlo Bononi, Giacomo Cavedoni, Giacomo Cavedoni, Alessandro Tiarini, Marcantonio Franceschini, Giuseppe Marchesi known as Sansone and Giacomo Zoboli.

Two precious canvases deserve separate mention which, although outside the Emilian artistic context, have entered, together with other works, to enrich the collection in recent times following the dispersion of a large Emilian private collection. It is a rare work with a religious subject, "Christ and the adulteress", by the Roman Ottavio Leoni, "portraitist of Caravaggesque Rome", as defined by Roberto Longhi, and the canvas depicting "The Continence of Scipio" by the Neapolitan Francesco Solimena , who, experimenting more and more often on the great themes of history painting, will become a prominent protagonist in the panorama of the highest Italian late Baroque culture between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
