The engineer and entrepreneur Carlo Viganò (1904-1974) put together over time a collection of more than ten thousand volumes, including a set of around sixty manuscripts and several 15th and 16th century editions on a vast range of scientific subjects. In 1971 he donated his collection to the Department of Mathematical and Physical Science that had recently been established at the University of Brescia. Viganò was not only a collector but a scholar as well, and he was in contact with the most famous science historians of the time.
