Description
Museo Nazionale del Cinema, Fondazione Maria Adriana Prolo, via Montebello, 20 – 10124 Torino Italy -tel +39 011 8138 560 / 561.
The idea for the National Cinema Museum was conceived in 1941 when Maria Adriana Prolo planned the creation of a space totally dedicated to the documentation of Torino’s film industry. Its collections comprise a wide variety of media including a rare collection of objects dealing with the history of photography, a discipline that Maria Adriano Prolo considered to be the trait-d'union between the pre-cinema era and the so called “seventh art,” cinema. This collection ranges from the very beginning of photography to the developments of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth.
