LI15 The Central Market

The Victuals Market, also called the Central Market or the Covered Market, rises above the Aurelio Saffi steps, along the Fosso Reale of Livorno. It is one of the most interesting Livornese constructions from the second half of the nineteenth century, in which one can also perceive the influence of the era’s grand architectural creations in iron and glass. In the Victuals Market, the famous artist Amedeo Modigliani rented a studio space in 1909, where he created several stone sculptures that he then supposedly threw into the Fosso Reale, before he left Livorno for Paris. In 1984, the stones were the focal point of a false re-discovery made by a group of Livornese youths.
