Why go

The Museo Giancarlo Vitali at Palazzo Lorla in central Bellano displays works donated by the painter's family to the municipality and ArchiViVitali.

The route groups related subjects rather than following a chronology. The mirror room is devoted to Germana, family and friends; still lifes linked to village life follow. The five spaces include the garden with the mural “Uccelli al Museo”, painted by Velasco Vitali in tribute to his father. The route continues past laden tables and ends in the blue room with “la festa è finita”.

  • The painter who made Bellano his subject, in Palazzo Lorla, the Circolo dei Lavoratori.
  • It pairs with the Orrido and San Nicolao on the Comune's combined tickets.

Highlights

  • The mirror room with Germana and the family
  • The still lifes 'at table'
  • Velasco Vitali's mural 'Uccelli al Museo' in the garden
  • The blue room and 'la festa è finita'

Getting there

  • It is in Palazzo Lorla, Via Manzoni 50 in Bellano, in the old centre, on the way between the lake and the Orrido; Bellano has a station on the Lecco–Colico line.
