Galleria dell'Accademia

Upon walking in, you will be greeted by some of the most impressive works of art throughout history. Your guide will lead you through the Hall of “Prisoners.” This hall showcases a unique form of Michelangelo's art, "non-finito," or unfinished. The sculptures showcase the life of characters inside the block, as their emotions form while trapped inside the Carrara marble. As a viewer, you can examine the exact dents and small details where Michelangelo was working with his chisel and hammer. Admire Michelangelo’s artistic process, and how he incredibly worked from a simple piece of marble. If you are interested in learning more, your private guide will go into vivid detail about each of these sculptures and their stories.
