In Rome, the Boncompagni Ludovisi Museum of Decorative Arts, Costume and Fashion of the 19th and 20th centuries belonged to the Boncompagni Ludovisi family and is now destined to be a Center for the Promotion and Documentation of Decorative Arts, Fashion, and Costume, understood as an evolution of social taste in the modern period.
A common thread links these distinct cultural areas: the history of the appreciation for beauty and quality craftsmanship of the products.
Furniture, furnishings, garments, and fashion accessories trace the path of the search for decorum and comfort in Italian society, particularly in the 20th century. The union of creative geniuses and outstanding artisans in each case fostered the growth and cult of Made in Italy.
Recording the evolution of the times, the collections of the Boncompagni Ludovisi Museum testify to the recognition of the historical and artistic value of objects and works originally intended for private use and now available for public enjoyment.
