		Con Francesco i Gonzaga erano riusciti a occupare per un breve periodo anche l'importantissima località di Peschiera che controllava quella strategica via di comunicazione Nord-Sud, Est-Ovest rappresentata dal Lago di Garda.

	Gonzaga - La Celeste Galeria
		In campo musicale, è indispensabile arretrare ai tempi del marchesato di Francesco II e Isabella d'Este, per comprendere quando la corte di Mantova cominciò a divenire un centro aperto ad altre realtà europee omologhe, sia nel senso della ricezione sia in quello della produzione musicale.
		Per ritrovare in campo profano una vivacità paragonabile a quella del periodo isabelliano si dovranno attendere gli anni del ducato di Vincenzo Gonzaga poiché, in linea maschile, i regnanti a lui precedenti – Francesco II, Federico II, il cardinale Ercole e soprattutto il duca Guglielmo – ebbero a cuore prevalentemente la musica sacra.
		In questo periodo maturò anche la peculiare vocazione mantovana per il ballo, rappresentativo o semplicemente d'intrattenimento, che Eleonora Gonzaga sposa dell'imperatore Ferdinando II d'Asburgo (1621) importerà nella corte di Vienna insieme a tutte le "cose all'italiana in materia di ricreatione" da lei ben conosciute a Mantova.
