There are not so many works of art to admire. Only some of the leading artists: Brueghel, etc., The audio guide (also in Italian!) Focuses not on all the major frameworks, but on a choice that is not always understandable. On the other hand it is convenient to visit, on one floor and with plenty of seating.
