Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Reggio Emilia – Pietro Manodori known as Fondazione Manodori, is a non-profit organization based in Palazzo del Monte, Reggio Emilia, Emilia-Romagna.
The organization originated from the saving bank of the city (Cassa di Risparmio di Reggio Emilia) found by Pietro Manodori.
[3] The Art Collection of the Foundation of Reggio Emilia Saving Bank – Pietro Manodori (Italian: Collezione d'arte della Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Reggio Emilia Pietro Manodori) is a small, but publicly exhibited collection of artists mainly from the Emilia-Romagna region, especially concentrating in works from the 17th century, the Baroque period when the local artist community, along with the Bolognese school of painters, had gained prominence.
However, the art collection was owned by the former owner of the bank instead, the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Reggio Emilia Pietro Manodori (Fondazione Manodori in short).
The collection also includes more works collected by Elio Monducci; an endowment of works and studies by Marco Gerra (1925-2000) donated by his widow, Anna Maria Ternelli; and finally works by Alberto Manfredi.
