Florence Uffizi Gallery Renaissance Masterpieces Small-Group Tour - Priority Entry

Enter the Uffizi with priority access
and decode the secrets of Renaissance masterpieces

Meet your guide at the Statue of Leonardo da Vinci in the Uffizi courtyard and enter with priority access through a special entrance. The tour begins with Giotto's "Ognissanti Madonna," the first work in art history to give a sacred figure physical weight and human presence, marking the starting point of Renaissance painting.

See "The Birth of Venus" and "Primavera" in the Botticelli rooms

Spend ample time in the Sandro Botticelli rooms to explore the philosophical roots of "The Birth of Venus" and "Primavera." Interpret "Primavera" through Neoplatonism, an attempt to reconcile ancient Greek mythology with Christian theology, and learn the story of Simonetta Vespucci, the "Queen of Beauty," and how her likeness appears throughout Botticelli's work.

Compare the techniques of Leonardo, Michelangelo and Raphael

In front of Leonardo da Vinci's "Annunciation," discover the perspective secret hidden in the Virgin's arm and his hazy technique of "painting the air." Then examine the serpentine figures (figura serpentinata) and bold colors of Michelangelo's "Doni Tondo," and finally admire the balance of Raphael's "Madonna of the Goldfinch," which brings together his rivals' techniques.
