  Флорентийская Галерея Академии была создана в XVIII веке при старейшей Академии изящных искусств. В музее можно увидеть такие шедевры Микеланджело Буонаротти, как "Давид" и "Рабы", а также обширное собрание ранней итальянской живописи, позволяющее представить, как зарождалось ренессансное искусство. Пройдя по залам Галереи, можно также почувствовать дух самого Возрождения, Раннего и Высокого. Кроме того, в ней выставляются работы маньеристов, творчество которых открывало новую эпоху в итальянском искусстве, наступившую вслед за Ренессансом, и академистов XIX века.
