The city's collection of paintings is housed with the Ceramics Museum in Palazzo Gavotti, and the same ticket grants entry for the two museums. The collection is unusually strong for an Italian regional gallery, especially given the presence of the large scale Crucifiction by Donato de' Bardi, which dating to 1448 is the oldest oil on canvas painting known to survive. There is an impressive collection of local 15th and 16th century religious painting. The collection of modern art housed on the ground floor is also worth seeing, and includes several more obscure works by major artists, with the enigmatic La confidence capitale by Magritte being a particular highlight. Picasso, Miro, De Chirico and Fontana are also represented.
