In a far-sighted move, Paolo and Franco set as a condition of the donation the \u201cmaintenance of the building\u2019s appearance as an historic residence\u201d, which continues today, and suggested that the <b>Na<\/b><b>tional Gallery of Liguria<\/b> be installed on the third floor, whose abandoned rooms could be converted into a modern museum. The museum exhibits masterpieces donated by the Spinola family, as well as works acquired by the State over the years documenting the importance of Ligurian painting.
