Brunelleschi, Michelangelo, Rossini, Machiavelli, Galileo and many more...
One of the important world cities:
What You Didn't Know About Florence!
It is not a city that can fit into a few videos, so far I have listened to 4-5 different guides, done a lot of research, stayed in this city for a long time, and tried to explain this place from my own perspective:
Greetings from Florence, the capital of the Renaissance!
Medici Riccardi Palace (Palazzo Medici Riccardi) is a place that changed world history and even influenced us.
The life of the Medicis is actually a success story, they climb from scratch to the top of the world.
While he was a simple, urban merchant, he went all the way to the papal institution and changed world history for a long time.
As the contributions of the Medici to architecture, we can give arches as an example.
While roofs are being built on top of columns in Roman architecture, Medicis are starting to use arches.
If you have noticed that almost all of the works are white, let me tell you who is responsible for this: Brunelleschi.
While examining the ancient artifacts, he sees that everything is white. In fact, the paints have been erased and lost over the years. But this great genius did not realize it.
This mistake is also reflected in the Renaissance (enlightenment) period.
Medici Riccardi Palace (Palazzo Medici Riccardi) is actually not a very flashy place.
The real wealth is inside the palace:
They kept paintings, sculptures and exotic animals inside the palace.
The men even have giraffes. If you remember, Pablo Escobar also had a hippopotamus. In fact, Pablo Escobar imitated the Medicis a lot.
The benches outside the Medici palace are actually the waiting room of the first bankers in history.
Michelangelo's father was working in the court of the Medici, and it should not be difficult to understand why Michelangelo, who was fed by very big names from a young age, was such a big name.
The show-off of the Renaissance art, which I am also a fan of, was held in the square where the Statue of David was faked.
All the sculptures I examined when I decided to get a tattoo are exhibited here.
In these sculptures, various events in the Ancient Greek period were symbolized.
And all in the square! It is displayed outdoors.
The Italians have...
Wonderful.
In the early 1200s, 7 merchants establish a sect/operation: Servants of the Virgin Mary.
They ask Bartolome Esteban Murillo to paint an angel and a Virgin Mary.
Bartolome paints the angel, people admire and praise Bartolome.
But to draw such a perfect angel is Bartolome's test, because the Virgin Mary must be more holy and more beautiful than the angel.
Bartolome, crushed under the weight of this test, uses the same tactic I do: he sleeps.
When he wakes up, he sees that the painting of the Virgin Mary is finished so magnificently that Bartolome could not draw it.
This image is considered sacred.
The admission window is located in the hospital in the square built by the Pucci family.
The babies left here are picked up and raised by the nuns.
These children, whose mother and father are unknown, are given the surname "Innocente" (innocent).
We are at the palace of the Pucci family, one of Florence's other great families.
The Puccis and the Medicis are two very close families.
However, something happens that no one knows about, and the relations between these two families are falling apart.
The Puccis decide to kill Quasimodo, the most magnificent of the Medici family, but the opportunities of the time are limited.
The smallest mistake can cause huge events.
While they are looking for a great assassin, the event is heard by the Medici.
The Medici raid Pucci's palace and hang each Medici to death.
After the event, Quasimodo has a panic attack every time he passes by the Pucci palace, so he has the window of the Pucci palace closed where they plan to kill him...
That's all for today from Florence, you should definitely watch the next video.
