Capital of Tuscany, Florence is among the artistic capitals of Italy and the world. Here art has grown with extraordinary energy to coincide with the revival of Europe.

The egemony of Florence and the Medici coincided with the most fruitful and influential artistic period of the second millennium.

On the banks of the Arno river, Florence enjoys a charm, a magic, an atmosphere that has never failed to enchant its visitors, from the first North Europeans to Stendhal, Ruskin, Berenson, up to the crowd of tourists of today.
