 Italy, on the other hand, was represented by a smaller group, but with works of quality, with artists such as Bartolo di Fredi, Francesco Bassano le jeune, Nicolò dell'Abate (‘’Vénus endormie’’), L'Albane, Guido Reni, Francesco Solimena (a beautiful set of four paintings), Francesco Trevisani and Giovanni Battista Pittoni (‘’Nativité’’).Some works of the Spanish school complete this panorama of ancient European painting, including Antonio González Velázquez a ‘’Christophe Colomb offrant le Nouveau Monde aux Rois Catholiques’’, a sketch for a fresco of the Royal Palace of Madrid.The collection includes the works of Breton painters themselves and artists attracted by the landscapes and peasantry of Brittany in the late 19th and 20th centuries, such as the Nabis painters of the School of Pont-Aven.
