The Uffizi Gallery in Florence

700 years of masterpieces in one museum

Caravaggio returns and Raffaelo is gone. Tiziano leaves for an art exhibition but the “Angeli” by Rosso Fiorentino are back. The Uffizi Gallery is like an art supermarket, a case that contains masterpieces of every historical period. This is the favourite destination for all the art lovers. It’s quite strange to see the tourists (in large part tourists coming from other countries) stand patiently in queue whereas the greatest part of the Italians has never been to the Uffizi. There are a lot of things to see. If you think about a painting, it is probably kept here. The path inside this huge museum begins with the XIV century room which houses the three altar pieces made by Cimabue, Duccio di Buoninsegna and Giotto. They represent an enthroned Virgin and child. Then it’s a crescendo of beauty: Botticelli, Leonardo, Signorelli, Perugino, Durer, Caravaggio… We want to give you just one tip: During your stay in Florence program an entire day dedicated to the Uffizi, wear a pair of comfortable shoes and enjoy this spectacle.
