From home to museum<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Bagatti Valsecchi Museum is a house museum that is the result of an <\/strong>extraordinary collecting venture in the late 19th century, involving two brothers: Barons Fausto and Giuseppe Bagatti Valsecchi. Starting in the 1880s, the two brothers devoted themselves to renovating the family home located in the heart of Milan: a building between Via Ges\u00f9 and Via Santo Spirito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, the two brothers began collecting 15th- and 16th-century paintings and applied art artefacts with the intention of displaying them in their home to create a residence inspired by 16th-century Lombard dwellings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was an incredibly modern project, not least because of the brothers’ desire to concentrate everything that was futuristic in the world at that time \u2013 heating, running water and electric light \u2013 in their home and combine it with the utmost refinement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the death of Fausto and Giuseppe, the Bagatti Valsecchi house continued to be inhabited by their heirs until 1974, when the Bagatti Valsecchi Foundation was established and given the collection of artworks assembled by the two brothers. Twenty years later, in 1994, the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum opened to the public, one of the best-preserved house museums in Europe and one of the first great expressions of Milanese design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Il Museo Bagatti Valsecchi \u00e8 una casa museo frutto di una straordinaria vicenda collezionistica di fine Ottocento, che ha come protagonisti due fratelli: i baroni Fausto e Giuseppe Bagatti Valsecchi. A partire dagli anni ottanta del XIX secolo, i due fratelli si dedicarono alla ristrutturazione della dimora di famiglia situata nel cuore di Milano: un palazzo tra via Ges\u00f9 e via Santo Spirito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parallelamente, i due fratelli iniziarono a collezionare dipinti e manufatti d\u2019arte applicata quattro-cinquecenteschi con l\u2019intento di allestirli nella loro casa cos\u00ec da creare una dimora ispirata alle abitazioni del Cinquecento lombardo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un progetto incredibilmente attuale, anche per il desiderio dei fratelli di concentrare nella loro dimora tutto ci\u00f2 che di avveniristico nel mondo dell\u2019epoca potesse esserci \u2013 riscaldamento, acqua corrente e luce elettrica \u2013 e farlo incontrare con il massimo della raffinatezza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dopo la morte di Fausto e di Giuseppe, casa Bagatti Valsecchi continu\u00f2 a essere abitata dagli eredi sino al 1974, anno in cui venne costituita la Fondazione Bagatti Valsecchi, alla quale venne donato il patrimonio delle opere d\u2019arte raccolto dai due fratelli. Vent\u2019anni dopo, nel 1994, apriva al pubblico il Museo Bagatti Valsecchi, una delle case museo meglio conservate d\u2019Europa e una delle prime grandi espressioni del design milanese.
