Palazzo Spinola di Pellicceria, Renaissance palace in historical center of Genoa, Italy.

The Palazzo Spinola features a classical facade with two-colored bands and marble statues displayed in decorative niches along its exterior walls.

The palace construction started in 1593 upon medieval foundations through funds from Francesco Grimaldi's will, becoming part of the Palazzi dei Rolli system.

The National Gallery within the palace exhibits an extensive collection of paintings from renowned artists including Luca Cambiasi, Bernardo Castello, and Bernardo Strozzi.

Visitors can explore multiple floors of the palace, which houses both permanent art collections and temporary exhibitions managed by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage.

Peter Paul Rubens included an etching of the palace's facade in his 1622 architectural book 'I Palazzi di Genova,' published in Antwerp.
