About This Tour

A private half-day tour combining Michelangelo's David at the Accademia with a deep dive into the Uffizi's Renaissance masterworks. Skip the long lines and join your private guide for a master class on Italian Renaissance art, first at the Uffizi Gallery to see works by Caravaggio and Leonardo da Vinci, then at the Accademia Gallery to see Michelangelo's David.

Michelangelo's David wasn't originally meant for a piazza at all. It was commissioned as one of a planned series of twelve prophet statues for the roofline of Florence Cathedral, but once the 17-foot marble figure was finished in 1504 — after roughly three years of carving, when Michelangelo himself was only in his late twenties — city officials decided it was too important to put on a roof and installed it instead outside Palazzo Vecchio, where it was unveiled on September 8, 1504.

It stayed there, exposed to weather and the occasional act of vandalism, until 1873, when conservation concerns finally won out and the original was moved to the Galleria dell'Accademia, into a space purpose-built for it by architect Emilio De Fabris — the same architect who, separately, completed the Duomo's current facade. A marble replica took its place in the piazza in 1910, which is the David most photographs of Piazza della Signoria today are actually showing.

On the Uffizi side of this half-day, Leonardo da Vinci's Annunciation offers a different kind of discovery: painted around 1472-1475 while Leonardo was still a young assistant working alongside his master Andrea del Verrocchio, it's been on display at the Uffizi since 1867, when it arrived from the monastery of San Bartolomeo — and art historians still point to the angel Gabriel's face as an early preview of the expression Leonardo would later give the Mona Lisa.
