Museum Fortuny
Major sights in Venice
The owner Mariano Fortuny converted the grand gothic palace Fortuny (italian Palazzo Fortuny), which belonged to the Pesaro family, into a comprehensive studio for painting, photography, set design and the creation of fabrics.
The Fortuny Museum was donated to the city in 1956 by Mariano's widow: Henriette.
The collections within the museum comprise an extensive number of pieces and materials which reflect the various fields investigated in the artist's work. These are organised under certain specific headings: painting, light, photography, fabrics and clothes design.
