Florence and the Renaissance
Once upon a time there were the MEDICI, the dynasty of the Renaissance.
In this tour we explore what I like to call ‘the unknown Renaissance’.
Are we sure we know what the Renaissance really is and and the consequences that this cultural interlude still has on us today?
Michelangelo, Leonardo, Botticelli are just three of the great artists we will meet on this walk through art.
How did they become the great masters they were?
Where did they live in Florence?
How and why was the Renaissance born in Florence?
Why was it such a revolutionary cultural event?
Who and what made it so?
You will be surprised by how many things you will discover on this journey between the fifteenth and sixteenth century.
