L’enigma del sorriso

Born from the collaboration between the Fondazione Culturale Mandralisca ETS and Palazzo Madama – Museo Civico d’Arte Antica di Torino, the exhibition project stands out for its extraordinary scientific and cultural value. At the heart of the itinerary is the comparison between the celebrated Ritratto d’uomo from the Museo Mandralisca, universally known as «l’ignoto marinaio», and the Ritratto d’uomo from Palazzo Madama, known as Ritratto Trivulzio . Two absolute masterpieces of Renaissance portraiture, both made by Antonello da Messina, which share an enigmatic and timeless charm: that of an ambiguous, elusive smile, one that for centuries has aroused questions and captured the gaze of those who contemplate them.
