Rick Steves’ Europe Season 12 showcases Europe’s great art and architecture. © 2024 | After its medieval struggles, Europe rediscovered the art of the ancients, led by booming Florence. We revel in the bold spirit of the Cathedral's lofty dome and Botticelli's sweet "Venus." Leonardo da Vinci gives us the iconic "Last Supper" and enigmatic "Mona Lisa." And Michelangelo - sculptor of "David," painter of the Sistine, and architect of St. Peter's - takes the Florentine Renaissance to new heights. #ricksteveseurope #artofeurope #arthistory

The Bruneleschi Dome was my best experience in Florence. Do this visit 1st thing in the morning. Michael Angelo's David is a must visit. Access to other museums was impossible due to the large crowds of tourists.

You kinda have to plan ahead and reserve a time slot. But I got into the David museum simply by standing there 20 minutes before opening time.

21:16 Rick got this one wrong (at least a little) the statue was originally going to be on a roof and he wanted the hand to look like the right size from the angle it was viewed from; then they decided to place it elsewhere.
