Sunday, October 24
Val Di Rose e Stagni di Focognano, Pianai Park (9 AM – 5 PM)
British Library Lecture: Cristina Acidini Caravaggio and the Caravaggeschi.
It is not certain that Caravaggio ever visited Florence, though in Rome he certainly frequented Palazzo Firenze, and his two splendid paintings of Bacchus and Medusa are known to have reached the Uffizi before the end of the 16th century. Moreover, he had many followers in Florence. The distinguished art historian Cristina Acidini is Superintendent for the Historic, Artistic and Ethnoanthropological Patrimony of Florence, and head of the Polo Museale.
