THE EXHIBITION.
Through about seventy masterpieces created by the major protagonists of nineteenth-century figurative culture active in Milan, the review that the Municipality of Novara, the Castello Foundation and METS Percorsi d'Arte propose for autumn 2022 aims to illustrate the changes that have taken place in the Milanese city between the second ten years and the eighties of the nineteenth century.
Turbulent decades in which Milan saw the fall of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy, the establishment of the Lombard-Veneto Kingdom and the second Austrian domination, the first popular uprisings and the wars of independence that in 1859 would have led to liberation.
The transformations that already in the Teresian era had begun to significantly modify its monumental and urbanistic aspect had continued without interruption during the years of the Cisalpine Republic, the Kingdom of Italy, the Restoration and the Risorgimento and had made Milan a modern city , beautiful, crossroads of people, of cultures, of art.
An elegant city that would have continued to renew itself even in the post-unification decades, think of the demolition of the Coperto dei Figini in Piazza Duomo (1864), the construction of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele and the conception of the Piazza del Teatro, in 1865 baptized Piazza della Scala, at the demolition of the Rebecchino (1875). A culturally very lively city, frequented by foreign travelers and inhabited by a wealthy middle class, but at the same time also a place where social differences began to become more and more marked and in which a large part of the population lived in poverty.
The exhibition itinerary will be divided into sections that will follow the progress of the rooms of the Visconteo Sforzesco Castle and will retrace the evolution of Lombard painting from Romanticism to the Scapigliatura, a cultural phenomenon born in Milan in the sixties that involved poets, writers, musicians, artists united by a profound impatience with the conventions of bourgeois society and culture.
