Art gallery
Lechi Museum
The museum displays the donation to the Town of Montichiari of an important art collection of the Counts Piero and Luigi Lechi, descendants of the famous Napoleonic generals nd enlightened collectors from Brescia. In May 2005 they decided to link their names to a museum able to preserve and enhance the approximately 350 works of art including paintings, drawings, prints and porcelain which were inherited from their family or acquired in years of antiquarian research. The 14 rooms of the exhibition, full of comprehensive educational equipment, focus on paintings from the Fifteenth to the Eighteenth Century with important works of the Lombard School, with artists such as Alessandro Bonvicino called Moretto and Giacomo Ceruti called Pitocchetto, as well as major episodes of seventeenth-century Roman painting (Gaulli) and Genoa (Magnasco) or Brescia genre painting.
