Description

Is the David statue in Florence high on your list of things to do when you visit the Cradle of the Renaissance? If so, then this is the itinerary for you! We are giving you a chance to view that 5.17-meter sculpture from a much closer distance! Relive your Renaissance art experience through the innovative guided tour of Florence’s Accademia Gallery. On arrival, meet an expert guide at the entrance of Accademia Gallery with fast track entrance tickets to skip the lines and spend maximum time delving in the artistic gems inside. Your eyes will be mesmerized with a monumental manifestation of Renaissance sculpture Michelangelo’s David, the crowning glory of this particular art form. Discover a truly famous sculpture. Observe arguably one of the most tremendous sculptures in the world, which represents the pinnacle of Renaissance art. The attention of the masterpiece of Michelangelo, David, is focused in the museum’s central gallery for full appreciation from all angles. Twenty-year-old Michelangelo sculpted David from one single block of fine Carrara marble. Height: 5.17 meters. Subject: Figurative biblical character David, the young shepherd who slew the giant Goliath. It was to this purpose that, in 1504, it emerged as a symbol, or rather “emblem,” of the resistance to Goliath, i.e. tyrannical monarchy, and in effect hence a “good omen” for Florence as the newly elated Republic withdrew from its previous submission to Milan.

The Accademia Gallery has more than just this iconic sculpture of David. Two other renowned unfinished works by Michelangelo, Prigioni, and San Matteo. Visitors will find many other artistic works that range from paintings to sculptures and even cross the middle age to the renaissance period.

"Our tour was so wonderful! My husband and I are on our honeymoon and have done multiple tours since we arrived in Italy and this was the first one where it was just the guide and us. We learned so much and were able to ask questions since it was just us. Highly recommend even if there are a few more people with your group!"
