Experience the incredible emotion of standing in front of the original David, the iconic masterpiece of white marble created by the genius of Michelangelo
During your vacation in Florence don’t miss out on meeting one of the most famous and eclectic artists in the world: Michelangelo.
Your personal guide will reveal the secrets of the ACCADEMIA GALLERY and the creation of Michelangelo’s world renowned masterpieces, such as the original version of David, I Prigioni and San Matteo.
The museum was built in 1784, and it was conceived as a real shrine devoted to the preservation of the SYMBOL OF FLORENCE.
This guided tour is a must and will be a discovery for anyone interested in MICHELANGELO: your PROFESSIONAL GUIDE will reveal you some interesting facts about the tormented life of the Tuscan artist, who was not only a sculptor, but also a painter, an architect and a sensitive poet. However, his genius matched his restlessness: his whole life was marked by the continuous struggle between form and content, between his religious devotion and his personal hidden desires. This inner conflict perfectly exemplified by the use of his technique, the world-famos NON FINITO, where an apparent incomplete sculpture seems to literally come out of the block of marble, as if it was always there. An authentic struggle between form and content brought into life.
At the end of the guided tour you will have the possibility to stay in the museum for as long as you like.
