Galleria Parmeggiani<\/h3>\n
corso Cairoli, 2
\n42121 Reggio Emilia<\/address>\n
\n
\n<\/address>\n

An extraordinary 15th-century portal from the Palazzo Mosen Sorell in Valencia \u2013 which frames Parmeggiani\u2019s wooden door, which the owner wanted painted red \u2013 introduces us to the intimacy of the Gallery, whose architecture is inspired by the shapes of cathedrals taken from some of the Marcy goldsmiths\u2019 works housed inside.
\nThis Gothic-Renaissance style building was built by Luigi Parmeggiani between 1925 and 1928 (and designed by Reggio Emilia engineer Ascanio Ferrari) to house his art collection. The building, both inside and out, seems to express a synthesis of models from the ancient world, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, perfectly in tune with the characteristics of the collection it houses.<\/p>\n
