Gallerie d'Italia, Modern art museum in via Toledo, Naples, Italy

Gallerie d'Italia occupies the Palazzo del Banco di Napoli at Via Toledo 177, a building designed by Marcello Piacentini in the late 1930s. Its three exhibition routes, redesigned by Michele De Luca of AMDL Circle, display the Intesa Sanpaolo collections: Neapolitan art from the 17th to the 20th century, Attic and Magna Graecia ceramics shown together for the first time, and a selection of 20th-century works. The visit begins with Caravaggio's last painting, The Martyrdom of Saint Ursula, dated May 1610.

The gallery opened in 2007 in Palazzo Zevallos, a wing of the piano nobile on Via Toledo, founded by Intesa Sanpaolo. In 2022 it moved to the adjacent Palazzo del Banco di Napoli, designed by Marcello Piacentini in the late 1930s. The new layout by Michele De Luca of AMDL Circle presents three routes, including Attic and Magna Graecia ceramics shown for the first time.

The gallery is named after Palazzo Zevallos, the Via Toledo palace that housed it from 2007 to 2022; since then it has occupied the Palazzo del Banco di Napoli at Via Toledo 177. The rooms carry names visitors can look for: the Sala degli Amorini, after the putti painted on its ceiling, and the Sala degli Stucchi, hung with a single work. The collection belongs to Intesa Sanpaolo.

The museum is at Via Toledo 177, in the Palazzo del Banco di Napoli, a short walk from the Toledo metro station. The visit starts with Caravaggio's last painting and continues through rooms on the first floor, so allow time for three separate exhibition routes. The building was redesigned by architect Michele De Luca.

The collection's highlight is Caravaggio's last painting, The Martyrdom of Saint Ursula, made in May 1610, weeks before his death. It hangs in the Stucco Room, also called the Caravaggio Room, which holds no other work. The canvas was long kept in Genoa before entering the Intesa Sanpaolo collections.
