Accademia Carrara

Accademia Carrara Review

Bergamo is home to an art collection that's surprisingly rewarding given its size and remote location. Many of the Venetian masters are represented—Mantegna, Bellini, Carpaccio (circa 1460-1525/26), Tiepolo (1727-1804), Francesco Guardi (1712-93), Canaletto (1697-1768)—as well as Botticelli (1445-1510). The museum is undergoing remodeling, but a selection of works can be seen at Palazzo della Regione in Piazza Vecchia, Bergamo Alta.
