The Sironi family nurtured a strong love for the Opera, at home there are large collections of vinyls that Franca and Fernando listened to in the evenings in front of the fireplace, making music and singing resound in the rooms of the large house. La Bohème was the name by which they called this evocative room in private, perhaps imagining it as a theater set, taking inspiration from the text from the homonymous opera by Giacomo Puccini: “Large window from which you can see an expanse of roofs covered with snow. On the left, a fireplace. A table, a bed, a cabinet, a small bookcase, four chairs, a painter’s easel with a rough canvas and a stool: scattered books, many bundles of papers, two candlesticks. I go out in the middle, the other on the left ”. [La Bohème – First Picture: In the Attic – Giacomo Puccini]
