Florence is, of course, bursting at the seams with art, but in this talk, we’ll step away from the great world-renowned national museums and the famed art-filled churches and refectories, and take a peek into three lesser-known unique house museums: the Stibbert, the Horne and the Bardini. Each bears the name of its founder: two English collectors and an Italian art dealer. Relive the eccentricities, passion and knowledge of these three remarkable men and the extraordinary collections that they have left us.
