Displayed within the chambers of Palazzo Vallemani, an exquisite Baroque edifice adorned with frescoed vaults by Umbrian and Tuscan artists in the early seventeenth century, lies the Municipal Art Gallery of Assisi. This gallery houses a vast array of medieval and Renaissance frescoes originating from both civil and religious structures in Assisi and its environs, alongside select paintings on wood and canvas spanning the 14th to 17th centuries. Assembled in the aftermath of Italy’s unification in 1859, the collection aimed to safeguard Assisi’s rich artistic heritage, curbing its dispersion following the dissolution of religious institutions. Among its treasures, the collection boasts a notable Maestà attributed to Giotto, alongside works by esteemed artists such as Puccio Capanna, Ottaviano Nelli, Nicolò di Liberatore, and Pietro Perugino.
