Taken around 1870, it captures the essence of this architectural masterpiece designed by Giuseppe Mengoni between 1865 and 1877. The image transports us back to a bygone era, where we can witness the grandeur and elegance that defined this renowned commercial gallery.

As our eyes wander through the frame, we notice various fascinating details: from balconies adorned with ornate furnishings for civic spaces to statues gracefully adorning every corner.
