Revoltella Museum
About This Museum
People come to the Revoltella Museum not just for the art, but to step right into the lavish world of a 19th-century baron. It's his actual home, so you wander through grand salons dripping with gilded mirrors and velvet, feeling like a guest at a spectacular party. The collection is a fascinating mix of fine paintings and his personal decorative arts—everything from intricate furniture to delicate porcelain he lived with every day. You leave feeling like you've had a private tour of a bygone era's elegance, which is way more personal than your typical, stuffy museum.
