Things to do in Florence, Tuscany: The Best Museums

August 16, 2021 Misti Hsu

Florence is an art historian’s dream. The Galleria dell'Accademia bursts with works by Michelangelo, who is entombed within the frescoed walls of the Basilica di Santa Croce. Budding photographers can snap pics of the Ponte Vecchio bridge, and serious shoppers can spend a blissful afternoon wandering the shops of Piazza Santo Spirito. Tuscan cuisine pays homage to the region’s bounty. Swipe a hunk of crusty bread across a pool of local olive oil and you’ll be instantly transported to your happiest place.

Passionate about fine modern and contemporary painting and sculpture, I searched throughout Florence for working artists and a gallery that could rightly shine amidst the Renaissance glories of Florence. The afternoon I spent with the Guarnieri brothers, Roberto and Rodolfo, will be forever etched among my life's great and genuine joys. They were most generous with their time, attention, spirit and interest in my own philosophy of art and life. Their work represents the essence of refined taste and whimsical perspective. The grand painting I now proudly hang in my home each day refreshes the insights, humility, cleverness and joy of my appreciation and respect for the Guarnieris and their artistry.
