Villa delle Rose 2
Wednesday, June 7th, 2006
Inside this 19th century villa now turned into a temporary art gallery for contemporary works. The Commune shares it among many galleries in Bologna so there can often be a great selection of art on display. The inside itself has nothing to offer except for 4 ceiling paintings which lack information on their origins.

Modern day offices occupy these fascinating rooms. Artists include Carracci, Agostino, Ludovico, Annibale, Gandolfi – a walk through talent from 15th-18 centuries.

Palazzo Segni Masetti 2
Wednesday, June 7th, 2006
A look at 4 very colourful rooms attributed to the Muzzi brothers: the blue room, red, yellow and green. Fabulous decorations abound including ancient fireplaces and furniture fit for Royalty. Small modern figures throughout are dressed in traditional clothes of centuries ago just for that extra mileage.

Palazzo Hercolani part 2
Wednesday, June 7th, 2006
An English garden is hidden in the courtyard of this magnificent building. It’s a great getaway from the masses or just to sit and study for a while. More rooms painted by Frulli, Busatti, and Basoli are shown here but especially the highlight which is Aula Ruffilli with the allegory of ‘Apollo and the Hours’.

Palazzo Magnani – Room of Honour
Wednesday, June 7th, 2006
Built by Domenico Tibaldi and Floriano Ambrosiani 1577-1592. The room of honour illustrates a great achievement for the young Carraci artists Ludovico, Annibale and Agostino whose cycle of frescoes represents the ‘History of Rome’ in mythical figures. Carlo Cesare Malvasia praised their unselfish efforts in working together.
