MAIN ITEMS INCLUDED IN THE TOUR
We strongly advise you to choose this guided tour inside the Uffizi Galleries. In view of the number of works exhibited, the different periods and their historical and artistic value, you will need an AGT guide to best appreciate everything. The 16th century building of the Uffizi contains one of the most important painting collections in the world.
Visiting the Uffizi is like reading a history of art book and it is truly exciting to explore the evolution of Italian painting from the 13th century to the 17th century, by admiring such famous original works. One commences with Cimabue, Duccio da Buoninsegna and Giotto, after which one passes into the renaissance rooms with Masaccio, Filippo Lippi, Piero della Francesca, Botticelli and the founders of the “modern manner”, Leonardo da Vinci. Michelangelo, Raphael and Titian, concluding with the great Caravaggio. By increasing the space dedicated to exhibits, a section dedicated to foreign painters has been made possible, which comprises Rubens and Rembrandt and has given new prominence to the collection of ancient sculpture.
Every so often the Galleries host temporary exhibitions of works some of which are kept unseen in the deposits and some of which come from other parts of the world.
