Art, Magnificence and History of a Medicean Villa
The itinerary favours the reading of the place from three main points of view: the artistic, the historical and the social ones. Focusing especially on the architectural structure of the Villa and on the transformations the manor experienced during the course of time- from “country house” of a nobleman to Renaissance, and then Baroque, residence- on the magnificence of the rooms, the sumptuous furnishing and decorations, as well as the talent of the artists who worked in the Medicean residence.

The Baroque decoration: stories of myths and heroes
The analysis of the frescoes which decorate the Villa boardrooms allows to explore the allegoric contents and the typical Baroque decoration style. The stuccos are integral part of that set as well, they take up the turgid and curvilinear patterns of the pictorial decoration, highlighting, with their white colour, the frescoes bright shades.
