Explore Florence's Bargello Museum, once a seat of power, now an art haven. Your expert guide will unveil masterpieces! Discover Michelangelo's David-Apollo, Donatello's David, and works by Cellini, Verrocchio, and Della Robbia. See Roman bronzes, Gothic ivories, and glazed terracottas. This focused 1-hour tour lets you revisit favourites afterwards.
Our tour begins in the Bargello, once a seat of power (Capitano del Popolo & Podesta) and later a prison! Now, it houses a treasure trove of Renaissance art.
On the ground floor, we'll admire 16th-century Tuscan works, with a special focus on Michelangelo's masterpieces: Bacchus, the Tondo Pitti relief, Brutus, and David-Apollo. Discoveries continue with works by Ammannati, Cellini, and Giambologna (Flying Mercury!), all enriched by the Carrand Collection's ivories, bronzes, and more.
Prepare to be immersed in the early Renaissance! We'll delve into Donatello's masterpieces like Saint George, the Lion, and David, while marvelling at Verrocchio's artistry.
Our journey concludes on the second floor, dedicated entirely to the glazed terracotta works by Andrea and Giovanni Della Robbia.
This expertly guided tour (approx. 1 hour) allows you to experience the Bargello's highlights without feeling rushed. Feel free to revisit any favourites after the tour!
