Palazzo Abatellis

Why go

Two works make this a focused art stop: the large, unsettling Triumph of Death and the quiet close-up of the Virgin Annunciate. The 15th-century palace frames them with its own architectural story, while Francesco Laurana's sculpted bust gives a third, very different encounter with Renaissance portraiture.

What to look for

• The large Triumph of Death fresco
• Antonello da Messina's Virgin Annunciate
• Francesco Laurana's Bust of a Gentlewoman

Useful to know

• Give the major works separate attention rather than rushing straight through the gallery.
• Combine the museum with a Kalsa walk; the palace itself is part of the district's historic fabric.
