This rare piece based on the Mod 2045/d but designed for a large scale space has been installed in the famous Milan’s Sforza Castel in 1963. It was installed in the Castellana Tower in Rocchetta. The sala of the treasure (te- soro) now part of the Trivulziana library and home to temporary exhibitions, preserves part of a decoration commissioned by Ludovico Il Moro.
Today, the Sforza Castle houses different museums: an archaeological museum on prehistory and Egypt, the Museum of music instruments, and the Museum of Decorative Arts.
