_________________
Liz Lev will present one of her favorite museums in the city, formed from the collections of two brother cardinals who, while powerful and successful, were never raised to the papacy.
With more limited means than the Borghese and Pamphilj families, Bernardino and Virgilio Spada put together a very personal and brilliant collection, revealing their attachment to Bologna, their own “discovered” artistic genius, and their remarkable connection to Galileo Galilei.
