Michelangelo’s David touches a deep chord in all who lay eyes upon him. Not only is he the culminating symbol of Renaissance Florence, he is also the pinnacle of genius for the artist who created him. Hear the captivating narrative behind this sculpture of divine proportions from your personal art historian, after being granted direct skip-the-line access to the Accademia Gallery through the pre-reserved tickets that come with this private tour.
Sculpted between 1501 and 1504 from a nearly discarded mass of lunar Carrara marble, this stunning masterpiece would have never seen the light of day had it not met with Michelangelo’s hammer, chisel and inspiration. And you’ll have to ask yourself, how he was made so perfect. Your guide will have all the answers to this and more.
At the Accademia, you will also get a chance to see the master’s hands at work on the partially finished “Slaves”, enigmatic visions of Michelangelo’s creative process as he sought to “free” the figures trapped inside the blocks.
Welcome to one of the most dazzling cities on Earth, so much so that it has and does define aesthetics across the globe. Hit the streets of the capital of Renaissance Italy with a passionate local expert guide all to yourself to unlock its secrets.
On this walking tour of Florences’s fascinating sights, you’ll make stops to admire the city’s cathedral, Santa Maria del Fiore, topped with Brunelleschi’s gravity-defying dome, as well as visit Piazza della Signoria to hear tales of the Medici and the struggles for political power in the city, before crossing over to see the most unique jeweler’s market you can imagine, Ponte Vecchio.
All along the way, you will head to hidden corners of the piazzas and down alley-sized medieval streets to uncover the city’s magic. Whether it is the bronze doors of the baptistry that launched a new era in human expression or the romantic meanderings of the Arno River, you’ll be left with an indelible image of this marvelous open-air museum to take with you forever with all the extra insight you crave from your private guide.
So, next time you wonder if something is really beautiful or not, ask yourself if it would hold a candle to the beauty you find in Florence.
