Leonardo da Vinci, Livorno, and the Day of Remembrance

On Friday, January 26th, at 5pm at the Museo della Città di Livorno, where the exhibition “Leonardo da Vinci. Beauty and Invention” is taking place, the conference “Hunting for Leonardo da Vinci’s drawing and Ilo Giacomo Nunes, a Livornese family of Jewish origin” is scheduled.
The initiative, curated by the scholar Massimo Signorini and included in the framework of the initiatives for the Day of Remembrance, concerns the thread that connects Leonardo da Vinci to the city of Livorno, namely the story of a grotesque autograph drawing by Leonardo, owned by the Livornese rabbi Ilo Giacomo Nunes. A story that has also been included in the exhibition catalog (Sillabe Editore).
