A Museum, a sign, a value. The Printing Museum The typographical sign Lodovico Pavoni was inaugurated on 27th April 2009. It is located in an area particularly "inspired" to visual communication. The ancient "art" of the Camonica Valley, with its rock engravings, inaugurated a graphical representation imprinted and "printed" on the stone. It then became an educational method for personal growth thanks to the intuition of the Blessed Priest Lodovico Pavoni, from Brescia, who was the first in Italy to found a printing school in 1821. The "typographical sign" is all of that, this museum is much more than a simple display of objects and equipment, but an active memory of what was and it must be the typographic culture. A "typographical sign" that aims to consider a deeper mark than ink on paper, an imprint of education and training to the good taste, order and aesthetics.
