Casa Buonarroti

About

Walking through Florence's old alleyways, a building where concrete and stone harmonize comes faintly into view between the stone walls. Opening the door of that building, stone sculptures infused with Michelangelo's touch quietly greet the visitor. The quiet sorrow of the Pietà and the strong resolve of the David cut through the air, and a space where time seems to have stopped unfolds. Walking among the stone sculptures that carry the sculptor's spirit, one comes to feel that the breath of the Renaissance still remains here. Over the stone sculptures touched by Michelangelo's hand, the visitor's heart, too, moves as if drawn along by his touch.
