Abstract

In the «Viola» building, frescoes by Innocenzo Francucci from Imola were discovered in 1797. The discovery arouses the interest of Pietro Giordani who will dedicate three important speeches to Innocenzo. The text is accompanied by some documents on the advisability of preserving the frescoes and on the academic meeting of 1812.
