About this experience
I invite travelers of all ages to an exciting tour of the Uffizi Gallery. You will see masterpieces by Botticelli, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, and other masters. Learn how to read paintings through symbols and hear interesting stories, myths, and legends associated with them. You will also uncover how to decipher the name of the client and the artist's signature in works of art.
What to Expect
Walking through the gallery halls, you will learn:
- How the depictions of Madonna, Jesus, and saints changed over time in icons
- Why themes of the Annunciation and adoration of the Magi are often repeated in art
- What flowers, fruits, trees, animals, birds, and monsters symbolize in paintings
- Why Leonardo da Vinci has so few paintings
- How artists convey messages to future generations in different ways
- How Botticelli started painting mythological subjects
- Why Michelangelo completed only one painting in his long life
And much more!
