The Gallery occupies the entire first and second floors of the large building built between 1560 and 1580 on a project by Giorgio Vasari: it is one of the most famous museums in the world for its extraordinary collections of ancient sculptures and paintings (from the Middle Ages to the modern age). The collections of paintings of the fourteenth and Renaissance contain some absolute masterpieces of art of all times: just remember the names of Giotto, Simone Martini, Piero della Francesca, Beato Angelico, Filippo Lippi, Botticelli, Mantegna, Correggio, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, as well as masterpieces of European painting, especially German, Dutch and Flemish. No less important in the panorama of Italian art is the collection of statuary and busts of antiquity of the Medici family. The collection graces the corridors of the Gallery and includes ancient Roman sculptures, copies from lost Greek originals.
