The post Pitti Palace. Catalogue. first appeared on History Lab.

]]> The Pitti Palace owes its name to the Florentine banker Luca Pitti and its construction dates back to the 15th century. It later became the official residence of Cosimo I de Medici and Leonor of Toledo, who enriched the building with their collections. The online catalogue yields more than 15,000 results, as it is currently the largest museum complex in Florence. The works it houses are divided into various rooms, the most important of which is the Palatine Gallery with pieces by Botticelli, Raphael, Andrea del Sarto, Titian, Correggio, Pietro da Cortona and Artemisia Gentileschi. The Royal Apartments, the Gallery of Modern Art, the Costume Museum and the Treasury of the Grand Dukes are also part of this large section.
