Pinacoteca e Museo Civico di Volterra

Facade of the Palazzo Minucci-Solaini
Rosso Fiorentino, Deposition from the Cross

The Pinacoteca e Museo Civico di Volterra (Picture Gallery and Civic Museum of Volterra) is located in the Palazzo Minucci-Solaini on via de' Sarti #1 in the town of Volterra, province of Pisa, region of Tuscany, Italy.

History and description

The core of the collection was assembled initially in 1868 from works from suppressed churches and monasteries. By the 20th century, the local superintendent of art and art historian, Corrado Ricci, added works from his collection and others, for a display in the Palazzo dei Priori. In 1905, the collection was displayed as Galleria Pictorica. The collection included works by Domenico Ghirlandaio, Pietro Candido, Priamo della Quercia, Taddeo di Bartolo, and Luca Signorelli, and the famous Volterra Deposition by Rosso Fiorentino. The gallery was closed during the Second World War until 1948.

The Palazzo dei Priori was a cramped locale for the many works, and in 1981 a display of works at the Palazzo Minucci-Solaini induced the authorities to create a new museum at that site, inaugurated in 1982. This palazzo was built in the late 1400s, with the design traditionally attributed to Antonio da Sangallo the Elder.[1]

Collections

Among the works in the museum are the following:

  • Signorelli, Annunciation, fresco
