We saw an amazing selection of beautiful artworks including the surviving cartoon of Raphael’s massive fresco at the Vatican, the only such full size drawing still in existence; wonderful paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, together with pages from his Codex Atlanticus; paintings by so many great artists such as Brueghel the Elder, Tintoretto, and many of the greatest painters From the 14th to 15th centuries. What a stunning collection!…

I visited the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana in December 2019. I had a hard time finding it and ended up walking around for 45 minutes with my map and asking several people (in Italian) for directions. But my persistence paid off. The Pinacoteca Ambrosiana is a beautiful museum but it is poorly lit. The ticket cost 15 euros. They provided a good museum plan in English and other languages which gave good guidance on the key works of art to look at. Some of the works of art in this museum include - paintings by Botticelli, Titian, Caravaggio, Breugel and many others. A cartoon by Raphael. A staircase with a beautiful mosaic panorama. Statues in the courtyard. A library with items of Leonardo da Vinci. After the library is a nice bookstore and gift shop. I had an enjoyable visit. But make sure you get precise walking directions to the museum.…

Toilets are only at the entrance. Take the lift downstairs.…

This museum was included with the 5-pass, and I am glad it was, as it was worth the visit.…
