Arturo e Ada Righini's Donation

Works by Giorgio Morandi
The works in the Arturo and Ada Righini Collection effectively convey Morandi’s artistic exploration of his loved ones, from the Still Lifes with objects from his studio to the Landscapes of Grizzana and the garden of his home in Bologna. They stand as concrete testimony to the essence of the Bolognese artist—that is, his dual identity as both painter and engraver, where the painter develops hand in hand with the etcher, and where engraving is elevated to the same level as painting as an autonomous artistic language.
