2010/2/25, Lynne Cumming <[email protected]>: In Turin you can view some lace in the Museo di Arte Antica in Palazzo Madama (Antique art museum). At the last floor you can find the textile collection, with some bobbins and needle-lace. In the bookshop there is also a little book about textile collection. In the center of the town (very nice!) I suggest you visit the cinema museum, in Mole Antonelliana. I hope you'll enjoy the trip to Italy! Silvia
