Palazzo Strozzi, Piazza Strozzi 1 - Florence

At Palazzo Strozzi opens an important exhibition dedicated to Botticelli (Firenze 1445 - 1510) and to his pupil Filippino Lippi (Prato 1457 – Firenze 1504).
This event offers to us a transverse and thematic “journey”; in fact, is possible to admire the works of Botticelli near the master-pieces of the young Filippino, so it is easy to make an interesting comparison between the two painters.
Thus, our “travel” about the Florence of the second middle of XV century, begins with the issue of the sacred, in particular, with the cultured Annunciation and the Virgin Mary and the Child (1480), in which the master Botticelli excels at the grace and lyricism; near, the pupil with the beautiful Virgin Mary and the Child and Angels and the altar-piece of the Vision of San Bernardo. In this exhibition we can see the different paintings themes: the portraits, of which Botticelli is one of the bigger masters, the allegory(sacred and secular), the literary(Boccaccio, Dante), the religion, with the figure of domenican friar Girolamo Savonarola (Ferrara 1452 – Firenze 1498) and, at the end, the melancholy and spiritual work from the Museo Poldi Pezzoli of Milan and the San Girolamo of Filippino (Uffizi).
