People call them Gonzaga delle Nebbie or the Gonzaga from the mists and this noble and powerful family will be the chief attraction of the new exhibition that will open its doors to the public at Palazzo Pubblico at Rivarolo Mantovano – in the heart of the lands between the Oglio and Po rivers – on 13th September.
The exhibition aims to divulgate the history of the branch of the Gonzaga family descending from Francesco Gonzaga (1445-1496) ; a family that after the death of Ludovico II and the fragmentation of his vast estate ruled all the lands between the Oglio and Po rivers for more than two centuries.
In the first section of the exhibition called “Sala di città” visitors will have the opportunity to see and admire old maps and pictures of all the towns, from Gazzuolo and Bozzolo to Rivarolo, Pomponesco, and Isola Dovarese, once ruled by these cadet branches of the Gonzaga family.
The second section will be entirely devoted to medals, sculptures and paintings featuring members of the branch hailing from Rivarolo and Sabbioneta, such as Gianfrancesco and Isabella, respectively son and daughter of Vespasiano.
The third section will be instead dedicated to the Gonzaga from Rivarolo, Gazzuolo, Bozzolo and San Martino.
