In Rome from January 26th to May 6th: Annibale Carracci at the “Chiostro del Bramante”. An exhibition of 160 paintings and drawings by the Bolognese artist who Carraccilived and worked many years in Rome, as well as in Naples, Tuscany and Venice. Carracci perpetuates the dictates of the Italian Renaissance, creating highly realistic works characterised by a very decisive use of colour. The artist’s brush returns to the classical dictates of painting, reacting to the mannerist style of the period, while remaining firmly anchored to tradition. With Travel Mall online booking you can reserve your hotel in Rome and have your chance to visit this exhibition.

In Milan until March 25th: With Henry’s eyes at Forma. Henry Cartier-Bresson (1908 Chanteloup - 2004 L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue) caught many intense moments in the Bressonphotographs he took all over Europe, Asia and America. In search of reality, he used his images of people to record the political, economic and artistic changes of the 20th century. Some of the captions fail to contextualize the issues and subjects but the exhibition offers a generous selection of his work. Over two hundred contemporary photos (both unusual and classic), period prints, drawings and documents provide a profile of the great master of the 1900s. The easyest way to stay in Milan is to book a hotel on Travel Mall.

These are just ideas, come back soon to read about other proposals and check often on Travel Mall website for updated offers.
