Pandolfini Talks | A Treasure of the Renaissance

This new episode of Pandolfini Talks presents our audience with a work of significance not only in historical and literary terms, but also artistically. The conversation between Cristiano Collari, Head of the Books, Manuscripts and Autographs Department, and Nicolò Pitto, Head of the Old Master Paintings Department, centres on an extremely rare Renaissance copy of a cornerstone of classical literature: De Oratore by Marcus Tullius Cicero. An extremely rare illuminated manuscript on vellum, a precious architectural binding, unique miniatures, its singularity: all these details make this work one of the Top Lots of the upcoming Books, Manuscripts, Autographs and Prints auction, to be held on 14 May 2026 at our Milan office at Via Manzoni 54.
