      Galleria dell'Accademia

      1 hour

      We will go back in times and imagine Florence in the times of the Renaissance when genius artists were working back to back competing with each other for a better commission and for world recognition. “He looks like a baker. The marble dust flours all over him and his back is covered with a snowstorm of chips.” - once said Leonardo Da Vinci about Michelangelo, starting a long story of rivalry as soon as he saw David finished. This tour will take you to the times when the great marble masterpiece were created so that you can imagine Michelangelo at work! Take your time to stay longer in the Accademia Gallery and discover the Museum of Musical Instruments with the oldest vertical piano in the world and original Stradivari’s viola.
