that is here ( along with Palazzo Rosso)
They have a beautiful Fillipo Lippi Altar Piece and 2 Veroneses, maybe a Ruben. They had some interesting Carravaggioesque paintings at the beginning.
I think st this point, S. had had it with the museums. This was an odd place too as there were old people who were the room guards. They would steer you into the next room like ushers. Luckily, every other room or so there would be these deep seated leather chairs that you could sink into. They were very hard to get up from.
