A Princess in the Palace: the Marianna Erizzo exhibition in Verona

The Miniscalchi Erizzo Museum Foundation in Verona is hosting an exhibition of rare elegance, dedicated to a prominent female figure from the 18th and 19th centuries. “A Princess in the Palace. Marianna Erizzo” invites visitors to trace the life of the last heir to a prestigious branch of the Venetian patriciate, whose destiny became deeply intertwined with Veronese history following her marriage to Luigi Miniscalchi in 1808.

Curated with historical rigor by Giovanna Residori and Alessandra Zamperini, the exhibition does not merely portray a noblewoman, but offers a privileged look at the social and cultural changes of an era of transition. Through a carefully selected collection of documents, period objects, and archival evidence, the exhibition narrates Marianna’s dedication to consolidating the prestige of her host family, while revealing the evolution of women’s fashion between the Napoleonic era and the Restoration.

The exhibition, open from June 20th to September 28th, represents a valuable opportunity to delve into the connection between Marianna and the museum’s permanent collections. Dedicated guided tours are available by reservation, allowing visitors to fully grasp the historical and artistic significance of this narrative within a fascinating architectural setting. An unmissable event for those seeking an authentic connection with the aristocratic past of the Scaliger city.
