Livorno (all year around)

Livorno is an artistic town with important figurative traditions. Most of the works painted by artists native to Livorno belong to the Macchiaioli school and have been collected in the town museums which are a setting for prestigious temporary painting exhibitions on an international scale.

Villa Mimbelli, a 19th-century villa situated in the middle of a beautiful shady park, houses the precious collection of Museo Civico Giovanni Fattori in its wonderful rooms. Here visitors have the chance to admire paintings by famous artists such as Fattori, Lega, Signorini and Nomellini who characterised the Italian artistic events between the 19th and the 20th centuries.

This museum constantly hosts painting exhibitions that demonstrate links to the most important European cultural schools. It's enough to mention the theme of the last painting exhibitions: "Cezanne", "Fattori and the 20th century in Italy", "Air of Paris", "Giovanni Fattori".
