Palatine & Modern Art Gallery

da TuscanyAll 8 Giugno 2011, 14:56 Florence Museum

Glamorous painting gallery, housed in the last Medici residence, later to be also the residence of the Habsburg-Lorraine family and of the Royal family of Italy when Florence was capital of the country. The display does not follow –differently from the Uffizi- a chronological order, it still mirrows instead the original Baroque style, with paintings displayed according to similarity of the subjects, frames, size of the canvas or colours. Among artworks here, many by Raffaello, Tiziano, Andrea del Sarto, Rubens, Van Dyke and Caravaggio, purchased by the Medicis or donated to them. Most of them belonged to the collections of Cardinal Leopold and Prince Ferdinand. As in the Uffizi, the collection is fully international, with a high number of Dutch and Flemish paintings. From the Gallery of the Statues a balcony opens up on the courtyard and offers a splendid view onto the Boboli Gardens.
