Pinacoteca Di Brera - Milan, Italy
The Pinacoteca boasts an admirable, if relatively small, collection of masterpieces. The palazzo was begun in
1651 by Francesco Maria Richini for the Jesuits, who wanted it to house their college, astronomical observatory and botanical garden. In 1776 part of the building was allocated to the Fine Arts Academy. If you have time
wander into the botanical gardens behind the Pinocoteca: an attractive, relatively unknown green space tucked away in the heart of the city.
