Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 1.5 hours
* The palazzo, the prison, and then the museum are all Bargello, which will impress you no less than the Uffizi, but will not tire you with the crowds of tourists. You will explore sculptures by Michelangelo and Donatello, masterpieces of glazed clay and porcelain by the Medici, collections of Renaissance weapons and fabrics to make sure once again that art and Florence are synonymous.
What awaits you:
• Florentine art and artifacts.
Get ready to immerse yourself in the subtle world of the Renaissance. We will look at the sculptures of the masters who managed to "revive" marble: Michelangelo, Cellini, Donatello and Verrocchio. Let's touch on the collections of antique weapons and Renaissance fabrics, talk about the so-called Medici porcelain and Florentine glazed clay. In addition, you will see the gold florin, which once served as an unofficial world currency, as the American dollar does today. And in the halls of applied arts, you will appreciate antique jewelry and rare items made of ivory, silver and table bronze.
• Secrets of the Bargello Museum.
Each exhibit at Bargello has more than one interesting story in store — many of them will be revealed to you on the tour. I will tell you about how the palace turned into a prison and then became a national museum. I will show you art objects that remember the masters of the city — the Medici and the Dukes of Lorraine. You will learn why Florentine glazed clay products still do not need restoration. And, of course, you will see the famous wooden crucifix.: I will tell you the story of this exhibit, the authorship of which is attributed to Michelangelo himself.
