Description:

Stand in front of the imposing David by Michelangelo on a visit that promises some of Europe's most iconic art. Take advantage of easy skip-the-line access to the Galleria dell'Accademia, with its exquisite collection of the great sculptor's works along with Florentine paintings and Russian icons.

Your tour visits the gallery at evening to ensure a more intimate experience, and skip-the-line admission gets you inside right away. Once inside, you have the opportunity for an up-close look at the stunning works of Botticelli and a chance to admire some important masterpieces by Michelangelo, such as I Prigioni, San Matteo, and the Palestrina Pietà.

David, a centerpiece of the gallery's collection, was carved by a young Michelangelo from a huge block of rough marble in a process that took 3 years, creating an icon of Renaissance art and a symbol of the power and invincibility of the Florentine Republic at the height of its splendor. Admire the artist's seminal work, and take some time after your guided tour ends to explore the gallery on your own.
