The Mandralisca Museum - which preserves within its ancient walls the artistic heritage, but also the legacy of memories, of Enrico Pirajno di Mandralisca - can well be defined as an interdisciplinary museum including, in addition to the picture gallery, a remarkable archaeological collection, a splendid monetary collection, one of the richest malacological collections in Europe, as well as furniture and objects of value formerly belonging to the Mandralisca family. The museum's pride and joy are two acknowledged masterpieces: the magnificent Portrait of a Man by Antonello da Messina, and the Sicelian krater with red figures on a black background known as the Tuna Fish Seller.
To some extent, the Museum still retains the intimate atmosphere of a domestic setting and the imprint of a private place of memories. In this evocative atmosphere one can almost feel the presence of the Baron, philanthropist, scholar and enlightened intellectual, and the value of the scientific collections, antiquities and works of art he collected is also in the testimony they give to the personality of the Founder.
