Game of thrones Intrigue, scandalous stories, life and death struggles for power. During the course of its long history, Milan has witnessed events that could rival any TV series. However stay calm; the only traces of its turbulent past are the beauty of its art and architecture. BY ELENA BINDA

12â€‡â€‰W H E R E M I L A N I M A R C H 2018

lthough everyone knows that Italy is a republic, Milan has never been the capital. So you’d be justified in thinking that there wouldn’t be a single royal palace or a castle. But you’d be wrong! Milan has a Royal Palace, a Royal Villa and a magnificent castle, known as ‘Castello Sforzesco’. The city boasts an ancient history, intertwined with the multifaceted events that characterized not only the history of Milan, but all of Italy. Italy was only unified in 1861 and became a republic in 1946. It is therefore unsurprising that Milan’s urban layout, architecture and art still have significant signs of the succession of kings and queens, both native and foreign, who shaped its history. PALAZZO REALE The Visconti family’s rule over Milan began in 1277 when Ottone Visconti became its archbishop; a perfect example of the intermingling of religious and political roles that characterized much of Europe’s history. Ottone wanted to settle his family near the archbishop’s palace, and commissioned an opulent palace. Known to the Milanese and visitors as ‘Palazzo Reale’, this magnificent palace is still located in its original position on the southern, right-hand side of the Duomo, facing the cathedral. It is now a cultural hub that hosts blockbuster exhibitions, and, in addition to changing its name several times over the past seven hundred years, the history of the palace has been interwoven with that of Milan and of the families who governed the city. Empowered by the nomination in 1395 of Gian Galeazzo Visconti as ‘viceroy of the emperor’ of the Holy Roman Empire, the Visconti family ruled over Milan for almost the whole of the following century. During the reign of the Viscontis, the Royal Palace, now known as ‘Palazzo Reale', underwent a major expansion, while the interiors were decorated by a promising young Tuscan artist named Giotto. The beautiful red and white octagonal bell tower of San Gottardo in Corte, considered a major architectural feat at that time due to its mechanism that enabled the bells to be rung every hour, on the hour, is the only remaining element that bears witness to its former Gothic splendour. When Filippo Maria Visconti died in 1477 without a legitimate heir, Bianca Maria

Palazzo Reale, Sala delle Cariatidi (before 1943)

Visconti’s marriage to Francesco Sforza marked the beginning of a new dynasty. The Sforzas decided to move their residence to what is now called the ‘Castello Sforzesco’. The palace in Piazza del Duomo became the residence for loyal courtiers and important visitors, including Leonardo da Vinci, who spent twenty years in the employ of Ludovico Sforza, who was known as ‘Il Moro’. According to legend, and some historical documentation, Leonardo watched the progression of the construction of the Duomo from his window, feverishly jotting down ideas that would inspire his own work. It is said that he used the roof of Palazzo Reale to perform some of his famous flying experiments. Following the downfall of the Sforzas, the ‘Palazzo’ became the seat of government for all of the city’s subsequent rulers, including the Spaniards in the 17th century, the Austrians in the 18th century, the French in the 19th century and, finally the royal family of the House of Savoy, up until the Unification of Italy. Under the Hapsburgs, renowned Italian architect Giuseppe Piermarini renovated the Palace in Neo-classical style. During the Second World War, it was severely damaged by the bombings. To remind the public about the atrocities of war, visible traces of the destruction that was wrought in several of its rooms were left for all to see. Today, Palazzo Reale, with the adjacent Arengario, housing the Museo del Novecento, is a major museum focal point, as well as a building of significant architectural value. Milan’s city council also offers the location as a venue for civil wedding 14 W H E R E M I L A N I M A R C H 2018

ceremonies, so don’t be surprised if you happen to see a bride throwing her bouquet between a statue of Napoleon and a neon installation by Fontana. CASTELLO SFORZESCO The crenels and drawbridges, fortified towers and secret passages, treasure rooms and winglets for canons of the Castello Sforzesco, will fire the imagination of visitors. The castle is situated one kilometer northwest of the Duomo, between the Cathedral and the Triennale Design Museum, and is a venue steeped in legend, anecdotes and curiosities. Its silhouette is a familiar everyday sight, and the Milanese come here to stroll through

its extensive gardens, known as Parco Sempione, one of the city’s favourite green spaces. But it is the interior of the castle that boasts major surprises. The building, an interesting attraction in its own right, featuring a succession of courtyards, porticoes and turrets, houses an amazing collection of treasures including a room frescoed by Leonardo da Vinci, a Pietà sculpted by Michelangelo, a painting by Andrea Mantegna and a cycle of tapestries by Bramantino. A fountain known as the ‘Bagni Misteriosi’, the largest sculptural work created by 20th century artist Giorgio De Chirico, dominates one of its courtyards. Particularly noteworthy among the artworks

in the museum is an unusual bas-relief known as ‘La Tusa’ (the word for girl in Milanese dialect). The canvas shows a young girl wearing ornate garments brazenly combing her pubic hair. This gesture, generally associated with prostitutes, and in stark contrast to her regal attire, has been interpreted in different ways. According to some, its purpose was to insult the wife of invader Federico Barbarossa, while according to others, it was painted as a tribute to a prostitute who had distinguished herself for heroic acts of patriotism. What we do know is that for a period of time, the painting was displayed in a highly visible position on the walls of the city, until it was declared indecent and was removed by 16th century cardinal Carlo Borromeo, who was later sanctified by the Catholic church. However, the Milanese did not destroy the painting, preferring instead to hide it in the castle. From an architectural perspective, the so-called ‘Ponticella’, or ‘little bridge’ - an airy construction, consisting of a portico and three rooms spanning the moat, is one of Castello Sforzesco’s most unusual features. Commissioned by Ludovico il Moro, and believed to have been designed by Bramante, according to historical documentation, following the premature death of his wife Beatrice d’Este in 1497, Ludovico took refuge in one of these rooms, which had been prepared for mourning. Over the centuries, the personal vicissitudes of this dynasty created a canvas in which love, lust, death and betrayal fired the imagination of the population. According to legend, the hapless Beatrice d’Este, who died in childbirth, is one of the female ghosts who inhabit the castle. Other spectres, who are believed to haunt the castle because they cannot find peace, include Bianca Maria Visconti Sforza – an able politician and the link between the two dynasties, thought to have been poisoned by her own son; Bona di Savoia, the mother and regent of Gian Galeazzo Maria, defeated by history and the tragic death of her heir; Isabella d’Aragona, a beautiful but unhappy

Ten years after the bombings of 1943, the Sala delle Cariatidi hosted a historic event: Pablo Picasso asked the Metropolitan Museum of New York to temporarily relocate ‘Guernica’, a symbolic painting depicting the ‘horrors of war’, to the Milanese venue, currently the focal point of Palazzo Reale.

Palazzo Reale: the heart of a “Museum City” And while March kicks off with the second edition of MuseoCity (2-4 March), Palazzo Reale confirms its status as a vibrant cultural hub. Palazzo Reale’s Sala delle Cariatidi will host an emotion-packed visual show from 3 March to 2 April. Curated by art historian Stefano Zuffi and titled ‘Il Quinto Stato | Milano, Città di Musei’, this visual show, featuring a kaleidoscope of images and sounds, challenges the viewer to take on a more active role than simply art observer for the first time ever. A unique chance to enjoy an immersive experience thanks to the screening of 90 masterpieces preserved at Milanese museums.

bride, suspected of attempting to poison her husband’s family, as well as several other princesses, whose deaths are shrouded in mystery. However, the most frightening presence is that of the ‘veiled lady’, who most believe to be the ghost of Bianca Maria Scapardone, better known as the Countess of Challant. Twice married and twice widowed, she was charged with immoral behaviour, accused of having commissioned the murder of two lovers and subsequently beheaded. In the 19th century, almost three centuries after

This show, which is free-of-charge, is a installation composed of other works that symbolically explore the history of the city and the people who shaped its future over the centuries. This unique interactive exhibition will be held against the backdrop of Palazzo Reale’s Sala delle Cariatidi, one of the city’s most prestigious historical venues which is in itself, a work of art (see photo below). The Palazzo will also host two other exhibitions during this period: one dedicated to Albrecht Dürer and the other featuring masterpieces from the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

the countess’s death, several disturbing incidents were reported to have occurred in the vicinity of the castle. These repeated sightings were so sinister that the local authorities were called on to intervene. Numerous men said that a beautiful veiled woman had approached them. The woman led them into the thick of the park, to a mysterious villa that no-one had ever seen before where, after dancing wildly with them she asked them to ‘bed’ down with her. After having sex with her, the lady allowed the men to remove the veil from her face,

revealing a bloodcurdling, empty-eyed skull. Following the fall of the Sforzas, the castle ceased to be a palatial residence and was used as an army barracks. At the end of the 19th century, when the idea of demolishing the castle - the symbol of numerous foreign dominions – was planned, the Milanese rebelled and appealed to the authorities to reinstate it. Following in-depth renovations, Castello Sforzesco and its beautiful park became a heritage site of the city. VILLA REALE Finally, you can visit Villa Reale, behind the Public Gardens. The headquarters of

Milan’s prestigious Gallery of Modern Art (GAM) since 1921, the villa was built in the spring of 1790 as the residence of diplomat Ludovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso. Spread over three floors, this elegant building is flanked by two side wings forming a large court of honour. Following the arrival of the French in Milan in 1796, the government of the Cisalpine Republic requisitioned the villa. It was originally commandeered for Napoleon’s mother – who never lived there – and subsequently inhabited by Gioachino Murat, and later by viceroy Eugenio di Beauharnais. Work on the villa was conducted by several leading architects and

artists of the era, who created a sophisticated, ultra-modern nucleus, which, following its transformation in the 20th century, became an ideal backdrop for important works of art. The typically Romanesque-style garden is also worth a visit, but, here too, there is a surprise. Adults can only enter the gardens when accompanied by a child; a role reversal that has now become a tradition of which the Milanese are proud. If you want to stroll along the picturesque, tree-lined paths of Villa Reale, or admire its small, lily-covered lake, you should be a parent. After all, everyone knows that as far as the Italians are concerned every mother is a queen.

Villa Reale

Overlooking the Indro Montanelli public gardens, Milan’s Villa Reale is a prime example of Milanese Neo-classical architecture.

OUT OF TOWN JUST A SHORT DISTANCE FROM THE CITY… Located about half an hour from the centre of the city, in an elegant, provincial town that was once a sought-after holiday destination, in Monza you’ll find another Royal Residence, surrounded by a marvelous park, which is well worth a visit. Built between 1777 and 1780 as the summer home of Archduke Ferdinand of Austria, the governor of Lombardy, Villa Reale soon became the summer headquarters of the government, which moved its operations here during the warmer weather. The mastermind behind the original project was Giuseppe Piermarini, who built a ‘U-shaped’ building around a court of honour, flanked by rustic buildings arranged around a courtyard, with ‘Italianate’ gardens, orchards and greenhouses in the front and ‘French’ and ‘English’ gardens 16 W H E R E M I L A N I M A R C H 2018

at the back. Following the Unification of Italy, during the second half of the 19th century, the Villa became the favourite residence of crown prince Umberto of Savoy and his wife. However, on 29 July 1900, Umberto, who had ascended to the throne after his father’s death, taking the title of Umberto I, was murdered by an anarchist just a few metres from his home. After his death, Queen Margherita and her family abandoned the residence forever. Today, Monza’s Villa Reale is used as a centre for exhibitions and cultural events, while its magnificent park is one of Italy’s best loved and largest, green spaces in the region. A year ago, on 25 March 2017, more than a million people flocked here to attend a mass celebrated by Pope Francis, the charismatic head of the Catholic church. www.villarealedimonza.it

Giuggiù latest creations In the heart of Brera, well-known Florentine designer Angela Caputi Giuggiù presents her new exclusive collection for the spring/summer season, the perfect accessory for each and every outfit.

ngela Caputi Giuggiù’s innovative, elegant jewels are the perfect addition to the wish list of every woman. Featuring a blend of art and fashion, her creations are characterized by a continuously evolving creative process. In anticipation of spring, the designer’s new collection ‘Mimetica’ draws inspiration from the colours of nature. At this time of year, flora and fauna gradually resurge to take on a new life before exploding in a blaze of shapes, colours and scents. The bijoux featured in the collection have been created using a blend of colours non-colours (green, yellow and brown) which recall the shades of the earth, bringing life to each and every outfit and enhancing your best features. The artist re-interprets camouflage graphics in a modern-day key, transforming her bijoux into real collector’s items. Geometric lines are combined with whimsical good luck 28 W H E R E M I L A N I M A R C H 2018

toad motifs and colours assume unusual hues such as acid yellow and warm orange. Also known by the nickname Giuggiù, the Florentine designer has become a byword across the globe. Her stunning creations have been showcased at several of the most important museums worldwide including the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Museo degli Argenti and the Museo del Costume in Florence. For more than forty years, countless sources of inspirations have stimulated and continue to stimulate the designer including, first and foremost, her love of 20th century American movies. The creative heart of Angela Caputi’s bijoux is her workshop in Oltrarno, located in the picturesque district populated by Florentine artisans. Each piece is assembled by hand in full respect of tradition and the true concept

of Made-in-Italy craftsmanship. The combination of typical working techniques and the use of modern materials, including synthetic resins, makes these objects authentic expressions of contemporary art. >> www.angelacaputi.com Via Madonnina, 11. T: 02 86461080.

NEW The area between Parco Sempione and Fieramilanocity, the former historic hub of Milan’s fairgrounds, has been given a makeover thanks to one of the most iconic urban redevelopment projects in Europe. Today, the district is home to residential and business complexes designed

Duomo One of Milan’s most well-trodden shopping routes starts at the Piazza del Duomo with the renowned department store Rinascente, offering wide range of fashion items under one roof, sand continues onto Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, the pedestrian street lined with the most popular brand-name stores. Map F4

Quadrilatero della Moda An exclusive destination for luxury shopping, the Quadrilatero is situated just a short distance on foot from the Duomo. This quaintly cobbled quadrangle of streets is bounded by via Montenapoleone, via della Spiga, via Gesù, via Borgospesso, via Santo Spirito, via Sant’Andrea and via Manzoni. The Quadrilatero is a reference point for the most prestigious Italian and international fashion stores, where all the big designer names and most luxurious stores in the world converge. Map F4

Brera The heart of the Milanese ‘movida’, Brera is synonymous with the artistic heart of the city. One of the city’s most picturesque areas, its streets are lined with studios, stores selling canvases and paints, antique shops, art galleries and window displays showcasing fashion items, accessories, jewelry and design objects. Today it is a hub of ‘haute parfumerie’, populated with big-name brand boutiques and artisanal manufacturers who create customized fragrances. Map F3-F4

Porta Nuova Located around Stazione Garibaldi, Porta Nuova is Milan’s trendiest, most avant-garde district. Its focal point is piazza Gae Aulenti a masterpiece of contemporary architecture and design. Stretching from piazza XXV Aprile and Corso Como to the Isola district, it offers an array of shops, locales and new openings. Map F2

Cordusio Young, more affordable brands can be found in via Torino (Map F5), one of Milan’s oldest streets which connects the Duomo to corso di Porta Ticinese and the Navigli (canals). Formerly home to the workshops of goldsmiths and artisans, it is now lined with numerous shop windows showcasing young, trendy clothing. The “5vie Art+Design” district, home to historic artisanal workshops, arty concept ateliers, showrooms and art galleries is within close proximity. Via Dante (Map E4), a pedestrian street lined with shops and bars where you can sample an aperitivo or eat lunch while sitting outside, runs between piazza Duomo and the Castello Sforzesco.

Gentleman Style Blue

The days when sneakers were only used for weekend walks are over. They have taken the fashion world by storm, revolutionizing the canons of formality that were the norm. The sneaker embodies pure comfort; the symbol of a new generation of gentlemen who reinterpret elegance and push the athletic shoe to new heights. Boggi Milano combines two seemingly irreconcilable styles: classic and sporty. The brand suggests pairing a slim-fit S’110 wool double-breasted pied de poule suit with a light blue shirt and a navy blue tie. An outfit that epitomizes Boggi’s unmistakable Style for Gentlemen. www.boggi.com. Piazza San Babila, 3. T: 02 76000366.

Several Tax-Free companies are able to offer immediate VAT cash refunds when the goods leave either Italian or EU territory (thus exonerating the passenger from having to return the invoice to the retailer). However, this procedure only applies at major international airports or main border crossings. Most major department stores have Tax Free Refund offices. 8. The services provided by Tax-Free companies imply the payment of a small administrative sum which is directly deducted from the amount of VAT refunded to the traveller. 9. In the event of a traveller not receiving a VAT refund within a reasonable period of time, he or she should re-contact the Italian retailer or one of the aforementioned companies. 10. However, please note, VAT cannot be refunded directly by customs offices. Source: www.agenziadoganemonopoli.gov.it/ portale/ee/citizen/vta-refund

Canal Grande, Venice

Visiting Italian beauties Three destinations to enjoy a day of fun and relaxation with the whole family! From Monza with its magnificent treasures and shopping streets to the lakes of Lombardy and Venice, one of the world’s most romantic cities. MONZA The beauty of its 14th century Torre dell’Arengario, its glam shopping streets and its Gothic-style Duomo, featuring marvellous frescoes depicting the life of Queen Theodelinda, make the centre of Monza (20 km from Milan) well worth a visit. However, Monza’s real jewel in the crown is its famous Villa Reale, a magnificent 18th century dwelling designed by Francesco Piermarini, the architect who also designed the La Scala Opera House in Milan. Don't miss Italy’s annual Formula 1 Grand Prix held in September at the racetrack lying behind its park. www.villarealedimonza.it LAKES OF LOMBARDY Each year the lakes of Lombardy attract millions of visitors thanks to their mild climate, breathtaking scenery, natural beauties and 64 W H E R E M I L A N I M A R C H 2018

historic and artistic treasures. The shores of Lake Maggiore (90 km from Milan) wash up on the banks of Piedmont and Lombardy, while its northern basin lies in the mountainous region of Switzerland. The most famous island is Isola Bella, anchored like a fantastic ship-garden and dominated by the majestic Palazzo Borromeo (www.isoleborromee.it). Lake Como must-visits include the Gothic Duomo, the Romanesque basilicas of San Fedele and Sant’Abbondio, the neoclassical Villa Olmo and, in Cernobbio, the deluxe Villa d’Este and Villa Erba (75 km from Milan). Don’t miss the “Lake Como Day Trip from Milan” (Mon-WedSat) by Zani Viaggi: www.livemilano.com.

St. Mark, the Bell Tower and Palazzo Ducale, are all situated just nearby St. Mark’s Square. Just a few steps from the square, well worth a visit are the historic Teatro della Fenice and, burdened with legend, the Bridge of Sighs, one of Venice’s most characteristic bridges together with the Ponte Rialto.
