Marengo Museum, Alessandria Italy

June 12th 2010 saw the re-opening of the fabulous new Marengo Museum, Alessandria, Italy.

I have ten paintings on permanent exhibtion depciting the events leading up to the battle of Marengo 1800.

As well as being framed on display, the paintings have also been enlarged and one of them animated in a short film showing in the displays.
