COLLECTIONS
Picture gallery
Frescoes, sculptures, drawings, prints and photographs witness to a
lively and bright cultural climate, supported by the presence of
important exponents of the national and international artistic scene
such as Martino Teofilo Polacco, the Monogrammist F. V., Pietro
Ricchi, Franscesco Hayez, Vincenzo Vela, Giuseppe Craffonara, Silvio
Zaniboni.
Upper Garda Archaeology
The archaeological section was recently organised on the basis of
innovative and enthralling criteria. The chronological and thematic
exhibition route winds proceeds in a fascinating context and shows the
first settlements in the Basso Sarca and Valle di Ledro areas, the
appearance of the first farmers in the Neolithic Age, metallurgical
production in the Copper Age, settlements during the Bronze Age, the
local conditions during in the Iron Age and developments in Roman
times up to the reorganisation performed in the Middle Ages. Each one
of these thematic areas is highlighted by a precious guiding element,
such as the stele statues of the Copper Age discovered in Arco between
1989 and 1999 or the loyal faithful reproduction of the Busa
Brodeghera.
The land between history and environment
Thanks to in-depth studies supported by precise photographic
documentation, it is possible to relate the events that set the pace
of local life, in which tourism played a primary role. In fact, from
the mid 19th century onwards takes shape the dynamic entrepreneurship
that will contribute, in the golden age of Mitteleuropean tourism,
in making Riva del Garda an international resort for leisure and
society life.
