LE COLLEZIONI DI PALAZZO DUCALE  
   
 

From 2000 on has begun the systematic publication of scientific catalogues of the art works of the Museum. The project is the concrete outcome of an agreement subscribed on 24th January 2000 between the Ministry and the Major of Mantua; because of that the Soprintendenza has engaged itself in the valorisation of the art works of the Town Hall in deposit in the Palace from 1915.

The series, called Le collezioni di Palazzo Ducale, is directed by Giuliana Algeri, Superintendent for Historical and Artistic Goods for the provinces of Brescia, Cremona and Mantova, and Director of the Ducal Palace of Mantova. 

The first volume, I Marmi Antichi. Rilievi greci e neoattici, edited by Federico Rausa, has been published in September 2000 by Tre Lune ed. and illustrates the marbles exposed in the Rustica Apartment.

The second volume, I Dipinti della Galleria Nuova, edited by Giovanni Rodella, has been published in 2002 by Tre Lune ed. and illustrates the altarpieces exposed in the New Gallery.

A third volume, concerning the marbles recently (2002) restored and placed in the Exhibition Gallery, and a fourth one, illustrating the paintings exposed from August 2002 in the St. Barbara Gallery, are to be published soon.

 A new guide of the Ducal Palace (Il Palazzo Ducale di Mantova) has also been edited in 2002, by Stefano L’Occaso, and published in four languages (English, French, German and Italian) by Electa ed.; a shorter version of the same product is in preparation by the same author.
