2. Overview Of Accademia Gallery
An educational visit to the Accademia Gallery in Florence is the greatest approach to
gain insight into the Renaissance art of Italy. Get your hands on some Accademia
Gallery Florence tickets because they come with a multilingual guide who can tell you
interesting stories in German, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch,
Russian, and Japanese as you visit the gallery. You will have the opportunity to explore
the Gallery's three divisions—Sculpture, Painting, and Music—and view a number of
important works. You will have the opportunity to view some of the world's most
renowned sculptures from the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries. The famous
David by Michelangelo Buonarroti, Giambologna's Rape of the Sabine Women,
Lorenzo Bartolini's Arnina, and many others fall under this category.
3. The Curious History of Accademia Gallery
New sculptures and paintings were added to the gallery over time, many of them
salvaged from monasteries and convents that were disbanded after the Grand Duke
ordered their suppression in the 18th century. Napoleon "worked" to increase the
Accademia's holdings by that year (1810). Florence's Statue of David was relocated to
the Accademia from Piazza della Signorina in 1873 for conservation purposes. Emilio
de Fabris, best known for designing the west facade of Florence's Santa Maria del Fiore
cathedral, created a tribune (vaulted apse) within the Accademia Gallery with a
massive skylight to showcase Michelangelo's David.
