"The Fourth Estate" (1901) by Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo is a famous oil on canvas depicting a march of laborers, set in Piazza Malaspina in Volpedo (Alessandria). A symbol of workers' struggle, the work combines Pointillist technique and social themes. It is now housed at the Museo del Novecento in Milan.

It was built by the painter in 1888 and subsequently expanded until it assumed its current appearance, with its large zenithal skylight, in 1896. It was donated by Pellizza's two daughters to the municipality of Volpedo in 1966, and its current appearance is the result of a restoration that brought it back to its original condition between 1987 and 1994, the year it opened to the public.
