==Works of art==

[[File:"Arti e mestieri" - Villa Fiorita - Brugherio.JPG|thumb|"Arti e mestieri" - affresco all'interno di Villa Fiorita]]

The remodelling works have erased almost of the whole [[:en:Fresco|fresco]]'s decorations on the [[:en:Facade|facade]]. On the backside we cancould glimpse a monochrome representation aboutof [[cariatidi|cariatidis]] that seem supporting the [[:en:Balcony|balconys]], which actually are a twntiethtwentieth-century addition.

On the inside, at the ground flour, in the [[:en:Mayor|mayor]]'s office, we could see [[:en:Fresco|fresco]] on the ceiling while, in the hall and in the central room overlooking the [[:en:Garden|garden]], there are [[:en:Frieze|frieze]]'s remainingremainings of eighteenth-century [[:en:Fresco|frescos]], which show mitological scenes (maybe episodes from [[:en:Cleopatra_Selene_II|Cleopatra]]'s life).

Throught the grand staircase to the first floor, we could admire a big [[:en:Fresco|fresco]] "Arts and crafts" by Max Squillace, Franco Ghezzi and Gian Mario Mariani. In the wall painting are depicted culture, family, field works and factory works, and man's aggressiveness. Field works are rappresented by a man with plough and oxes. Field works were the first economic richness's source which then were displaced by factory, technology and industry mechanization. Family, in a social context, is depicted by a man who gives to a woman, layed down on the big hand of earth mother, a wheat seed as fecundity's sign. Figure contained in a globe are representing culture. This bodies, in all their beauty, strongly statuesque, are stirred, as getting out of the structure in which they are put, to show that culture isn't about few elected people but an interchangeable property. At last, a man that symbolizes the aggressiveness which is inside of us and we should "take it ouout" to create something new and maybe a new world. In the middle, as show the bond of all these with the city, there is the town's [[:en:Coat_of_arms|coat of arms]]<ref>Brugherio - Notiziario Comunale - january 1979</ref>.

==Villa Fiorita's Park==

[[File:Parco di Villa Fiorita - Brugherio.JPG|thumb|Parco di Villa Fiorita|left]]

Beyond [[Villa Fiorita]]'s building, in the middle of [[:en:Brugherio|Brugherio]], there are a [[:en:English_landscape_garden|english landscape garden]] which is extended infor about 7&nbsp;000&nbsp;m² .

The first historical informations about this park go back to eighteen century, when it was just a little [[:en:Garden|garden]] annexed to count Ottaviano Scotti's mansion.

Riga 66:

In the second half of the nineteenth century it was enlarged and transformed into a classic romantic [[:en:Garden|garden]]. We could see the typical elements of the informal park: man-made hill, sinuous paths, irregular arboreous setting, the rocailles to delimit flower-beds and the avenues and the fence.

The arboreous assets count more than 600 specimenspecimens formedcomposed not just by [[:en:Hackberries|hackberries]] and [[:en:Yew|yew trees]], but also by [[:en:Cedrus|cedars]], [[:en:Aesculus_hippocastanum|horse chestnuts]], [[:en:Beech|beeches]], [[:en:Ginkgo_biloba|ginkos]], [[:en:Maple|maples]], [[:en:Elm|elms]] and [[:en:Robinia|robinias]].

It's remarkable the monumental [[:en:Hackberries|hackberry]] in front of De Pisis greenhouse, the magnificent [[:en:Styphnolobium_japonicum|Sophora japonica]] and the historical cane thicket of [[:en:Bamboo|bamboo]].

==De Pisis greenhouse==

Inside [[Villa Fiorita]]'s Park there are's a building, pertained to the mansion, that was used as a greenhouse. [[Villa Fiorita]] became a [[Casa_di_cura_e_di_custodia|nursing home]] nervous didease, and between 1949 and 1956 it hosted the painter [[:en:Filippo_De_Pisis|Filippo de Pisis]] (1896-1956) of [[:en:Ferrara|Ferrara]] who used as an office the mansion's greenhouse, choosing it because it was surrounded by park's green and because the optimal exposure to the sun.
