The discovery of the inventory of Matteo Forieri’s legacy suggested an in-depth study of the family’s collecting passions: paintings (in particular by Filippo Abbiati) and, in the case of Matteo’s son Giovanni, also coins, cameos and drawings. The authors has been transcribed and commented a Giovanni’s manuscript (Milan, Biblioteca Ambrosiana) text on an imaginary gallery, which includes paintings and presumably drawings depicting subjects of ancient and Biblical history, according to a chronological narrative path. The iconographic choices derive from an erudite culture, not unusual for the times, but expressed in completely original ways.
