Almost ready to return ✈️
Our summer break is coming to an end, and we look forward to sharing new stories, new insights and new works with you once again.
The new season will begin with an important appointment: Carlo Orsi Gallery’s participation in the upcoming Biennale Internazionale dell’Antiquariato di Firenze.
Behind every work we choose to present lie months of research, study and careful consideration.
In the coming weeks, we will reveal some details of the works that will accompany us to this prestigious event.
See you soon!

Set above the Costa dei Trabocchi, the Abbey of San Giovanni in Venere is one of the most significant medieval sites in Abruzzo.
Its Romanesque is marked by the finely carved stone portal, the quiet cloister and the garden that surrounds the former monastic spaces.
The crypt preserves traces of ancient painted decoration and offers a more intimate view of the abbey’s history and religious function.
Beyond the architecture, the setting is an essential part of the experience: from the abbey, the Adriatic opens out towards the coast, creating a remarkable dialogue between the medieval complex and its landscape.
A place where art, history and architecture can still be experienced together.

At the heart of San Quirico d’Orcia, the Horti Leonini embody one of the finest expressions of the Renaissance relationship between art and nature.
Created in the late 16th century at the initiative of Cardinal Ascanio II Piccolomini, the Horti are more than just a garden: they are a space conceived through order, proportion, and perspective.

The geometry of the paths, the presence of sculpture, and the dialogue with the surrounding landscape transform nature into a true aesthetic experience.

A place where the garden becomes, in every sense, a work of art.

Between Renaissance and Romanesque: the timeless beauty of Val d’Orcia.
In the heart of the Val d’Orcia, art and landscape exist in extraordinary harmony.
At Palazzo Piccolomini in Pienza, the Renaissance vision of Pope Pius II and architect Bernardo Rossellino transformed the town into a remarkable experiment in the ideal city: balanced proportions, elegant architecture and a garden suspended above the Tuscan landscape.
A few kilometres away, the Abbey of Sant’Antimo offers a very different expression of beauty. Founded in the Middle Ages, its Romanesque architecture, sculptural details and serene setting embody a quieter, more spiritual relationship between art and nature.
Two places, two centuries, two visions of beauty united by the extraordinary landscape of Tuscany.

Summer is the season that invites us to slow down our gaze.
In Italian painting of the fifteenth century, the landscape gradually ceased to be a mere backdrop and became a living space, rich in light, vegetation and atmosphere. Hills, trees, streams and clear skies accompany sacred figures, transforming nature into an integral part of the narrative.
In this detail from Saint Peter Martyr with Saints Nicholas of Bari and Benedict by Cima da Conegliano, the landscape reveals the extraordinary harmony between humanity and nature that characterises Venetian Renaissance painting.
May these days offer everyone the time to observe, with the same sense of calm, the beauty that surrounds us.

There are places we pass every day without realising how many stories they hold. Basilica di Sant’Eufemia is one of them.
In the heart of Milan, its starry sky immediately catches the eye, stretching across the portico and continuing inside the church. Beneath it, centuries of history, devotion and transformation have unfolded, leaving behind a place where the past still feels remarkably present.
The painted stars offer more than a beautiful detail: they create a dialogue between the sacred and the celestial, between the history held within these walls and the infinite sky above them.
A reminder that sometimes, amid a city in constant motion, all it takes is looking up to discover a different kind of timelessness.

The Return of Ulysses: a spanning the centuries 🌊
Long before reaching the silver screen, the story of Ulysses travelled for centuries through literature and the visual arts, becoming one of the most fascinating myths of Western culture.
In this refined panel by Girolamo Marchesi (Cotignola, c. 1480 – Rome, after 1531), the artist depicts the most anticipated moment of the Homeric journey: Ulysses’ return to Ithaca and his reunion with Penelope.
During the Renaissance, the myth of the Greek hero acquired a profound symbolic meaning: Penelope’s faithfulness and Ulysses’ return became examples of marital and family virtue, themes particularly cherished in the decoration of cassoni(wedding chests).
Painted around 1510–1513, this panel belongs to the artist’s early period, still closely connected to the artistic environment of the Zaganelli brothers in Romagna, and represents a rare testimony to the fortune of the Homeric myth in Northern Italian painting.
An ancient story that still speaks to us today of journeys, waiting and return.

There is a kind of friendship that is measured over time and leaves a tangible mark on the history of a . For one hundred years, the Amici di Brera Association has supported the Pinacoteca di Brera through acquisitions, restorations, donations and initiatives dedicated to promoting and preserving one of Italy’s most important artistic heritages.
A century of discreet patronage, founded on the belief that art is a legacy to be protected and passed on to future generations.
On the occasion of International Friendship Day, we wish to celebrate this extraordinary story, which reaches its centenary this year and whose celebrations will culminate in autumn with a dedicated exhibition at the Pinacoteca di Brera.
Today, Carlo Orsi has the honour of serving as President of this historic Association, continuing a tradition that for one hundred years has brought together passion, scholarship and civic commitment.
