It’s hard not to sneak a peek at Michelangelo’s David - the crown jewel of Italian sculpture - on display at the Accademia Gallery. With this tour, you get to bypass the queue and feast your eyes on the remarkable Renaissance collection. Elena, one of our local tour guides, suggests, ‘Venture beyond the intricacies of unfinished sculptures and Renaissance art in the gallery. Unearth insights into the lifestyle of the historical Medici family of Florence.’
Journey through the gallery’s seven chambers to appreciate paintings, frescos, and altarpieces, and discover why Michelangelo’s incomplete statues continue to pique interest today. The Tribune houses the main attraction of the gallery. The massive statue of David, carved from a single marble slab by Michelangelo when he was just 26, provides a radical interpretation of David ahead of his confrontation with Goliath.
Pay a visit to the Museum of Musical Instruments to witness an exquisite collection of string and wind apparatus, including a unique Stradivari viola adorned with the Medici family emblem.
