"I have created a small gallery in the Villa. Monteriggioni's artists are always welcome to study them."

―Mario Auditore about the Villa's gallery in 1454

A painting gallery is an area where paintings purchased by Ezio Auditore da Firenze were showcased. One is present in both the Villa Auditore and the Tiber Island headquarters.

Villa Auditore

The painting gallery in the Villa Auditore.

At some point around 1454, Mario Auditore created a painting gallery in the Villa, taking advantage of his brother's connections in Florence to import fine art. From 1476 to 1499, Ezio Auditore gathered various pieces of Renaissance artwork from art merchants in several different cities, which were displayed in the villa's painting gallery. These paintings were the work of many artists, including Leonardo da Vinci.

Tiber Island hideout

The painting gallery in the Tiber Island headquarters.

After having obtained an old storeroom on Tiber Island from Fabio Orsini, the Assassin Order re-decorated one room to a painting gallery. Ezio Auditore once again gathered paintings, sold by art merchants throughout Rome - all of which were the work of Raphael. Additionally, portraits of primary assassination targets were displayed in same gallery, as opposed to being displayed in Ezio's room as they were in the Villa Auditore.
