Joined 2022
The decorative charm of Palazzo Vecchio is also to be found in the richness of the stuccoes and the plant and animal motifs. Therefore, this tour is dedicated to the presentation of nature as conceived by the artists who enriched the halls of the palace with their skills.

The David Experience
The story of David would inspire many sculptures and paintings during the Italian Renaissance, with Christian themes being prevalent within art at this time. It would be the specific tale of David overcoming Goliath that would be featured most often, as artists looked to harness this powerful tale as inspiration for their own work. Even just within this single art movement, there would be many different interpretations, and each generation would influence the next with their own innovations.
Gemstones and flowers at the Uffizi
With this tour we will see how flowers are depicted in some of the most important works of art and their symbolism. We will also look at gemstones, which have always been important elements in painting realization.
Uffizi Gallery Crash Tour
This three-hour walking tour of the Uffizi Gallery literally starts from the very bottom by visiting the foundations of the palace that was built on an earlier structure, namely the Church of San Pier Schieraggio. Through the Scalone Vasariano we will reach the second corridor where the tour properly begins with a visit to the adjacent rooms. The works are arranged in chronological order, so you will have the chance to admire the many masterpieces from the end of the 1200s to 1600s.
