Palazzo Ziino is a historic building located in the center of Palermo. The Palazzo today houses a museum and media library. The building is a perfect example of neoclassical architecture and the original decorations have mostly been lost. Among the decorations present are remembered: the submitted by the painter Rocco Lentini, the wallpaper decorated by the painter Giuseppe Enea, the fireplaces designed by the architect Giuseppe Almeyda, the curtains decorated by Ernesto Basile and the vault of the main hall decorated by Ernesto Padovano. Today the main floor of the building is home to about seventy plaster sculptures from the Civic Gallery of Modern Art in Palermo. Among the works in the gipsoteca are those made by Domenico Costantino, Nino Geraci, Mario Rutelli, Antonio Ugo, Ettore Ximenes and Benedetto Civiletti. The plaster cast gallery is open only on some special occasions.
