Every collection tells a story. Not only the story of the works it preserves, but also that of the vision that brought them together, the eras they have traversed, and the meanings they continue to acquire over time. The Generali Collection is the result of this dialogue: a heritage built over decades, in which paintings, sculptures, and works on paper come together to form a narrative that spans centuries of creativity, intertwining artists, languages, and diverse sensibilities.

Rather than a simple succession of masterpieces, it is a web of relationships that reveals the complexity of art history and its ongoing engagement with the present. This volume invites readers to follow that narrative with fresh eyes, allowing themselves to be guided by the artworks and the stories they contain.

For every collection is, above all, a place where memory continues to generate the future.
