«Boccioni, Modigliani, Morandi, and Picasso join masterpieces by, among others, Mantegna, Bellini, Piero della Francesca, Raphael, and Caravaggio. They represent the spirit of the city of Milan and its enlightened middle class, in a unity of intent that has been continuous since Brera was founded [...]: to give a unified representation to a complex in which for centuries other prestigious institutions have coexisted and collaborated with the Gallery and the Library: the Academy, the Istituto Lombardo, the Botanical Garden, and the Astronomical Observatory, together with the Amici di Brera, the Società Storica Lombarda, and the Archivio Storico Ricordi».
