Palazzo Martinengo da Barco, the historic seat of the Pinacoteca, recently restored in its layout, offers an extraordinary collection of paintings and works of decorative art, formed from the generous legacy of Count Paolo Tosio. The route, organized chronologically, includes masterpieces of absolute fame such as the Angel and the Redeemer of Raphael and the Adoration of the shepherds by Lorenzo Lotto. Of particular importance is the collection of Brescia Renaissance painting and the large commissions of the Brescia collectors of the neoclassical and romantic age, including Angelica Kauffmann, Andrea Appiani, Berthel Thorvaldsen, Antonio Canova and Francesco Hayez.
