THE PINACOTECA OF VOLTERRA
Even a short visit to the Pinacoteca di Volterra will surprise you. Starting from the beautiful building where the works are kept: the Minucci-Solaini palace, perhaps the most beautiful of the few Renaissance palaces in the city, and then continuing with splendid paintings of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.
TOUR
It will be possible to admire significant works by Taddeo di Bartolo and Luca Signorelli and of course the splendid Deposizione of Rosso Fiorentino. It will be possible to deepen understanding and knowledge of their works, every time full of new ideas and interpretations.
The guided tour of the Pinacoteca lasts about one hour. You also can visit the Ecomuseo dell’alabastro which is also in the Palazzo Minucci-Solaini, in one of the very ancient towers: two fundamental places to understand the most significant aspects of the history of Volterra
.
