The Marengo Museum in the Province of Alessandria, Italy, is undergoing a complete renovation of it’s exhibits and galleries.

I am very happy to report to you that this museum, dedicated to the Battle of Marengo in 1800,  has commissioned a group of paintings from me for the new exhibits.

The Marengo Museum will have a grand opening June 12th, 2010.

Photos of the museum and my painting progress are on my web site

Each month, until the museum reopens, we will add photos as the museum develops its new exhibits and I complete artwork.

Best wishes,

Keith Rocco
