The Magnani paper mills date their origins back to the XV century. During the years very important artist such as Picasso, De Chirico, Guttuso, Annigoni, Maccari, Bueno, Guarnieri, Morandi, writers like D’Annunzio, Giusti and many others used to have their own paper produced as a sign of distinction.

Today Magnani is still manufacturing high quality water colour papers and drawing pads for artists.
