Verified profile


On the occasion of the Philosophy Festival, this year dedicated to the theme of the Person, the Estensi Galleries will inaugurate an installation at the Palazzo Ducale in Sassuolo that can be visited until 30 November 2019.

Three holograms will revive the three dukes named "Francesco", those who led the Este state between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The curators, Angela Fiore, Federico Fischetti and Simone Sirocchi, have chosen to have them meet in the rooms of the Doge's Palace. The result will be a fun and historically impossible dialogue that will allow them to be revealed in their person, highlighting their historical value and at the same time the most private profile, made up of passions and moments of court life, especially in the Sassuolo residence.

The event will also be an opportunity to explore the individual figures of the three "Franceschi" through a series of meetings in which, in addition to the voice of the leading experts, the music of the time will be performed, the same that the dukes listened to in the Palace.
