Hitler painting on show for first time at Italy museum
The small untitled work has been lent by a German private collector to the Museum of Salo, on the shores of Lake Garda, for an exhibition called the "Museum of Madness", BBC reports, referring to Corriere della Sera Italian news agency.
The source notes that the painting shows two men, one at a table, with a dark corridor extending behind them.
The exhibition's curator sees little artistic merit in the undated painting. "It's a piece of crap," says curator Vittorio Sgarbi. "It's a painting by a hopeless man, it could have been done by Kafka, it says a lot about his psyche: here you do not see greatness, you see misery."
Around 200 paintings, photos, sculptures and multimedia installations will explore the theme of madness at the museum until 16 November this year, the Local reports.
