| Summary: | The aim of this paper is to investigate the events connected with the establishment of the Reale Galleria di Torino as a public museum in 1832 in relation to the training path of its first director, Roberto d'Azeglio, who was in voluntary exile in Paris, where he came into contact with artists from the entourage of David's pupils in the 1920s. The function of the museum for d'Azeglio is the same as that identified by Quatrémere de Quincy: an institution of high civic value strongly linked to the present. Contemporary art and ancient art can thus establish a close dialogue to consolidate the ethical and civic involvement of visitors.
