Live the emotion, in Palazzo Vecchio, of painting on “fresh” plaster with the technique used by the great Renaissance artists who "frescoed" even the splendid rooms of the Palace of the Medici.

True artists will assist you in the direct execution of a small fresco. On a base of natural terracotta, you will assist to the application of plaster, the creation of the pouncing with cartons, and finally the preparation of the colours followed by the colouring.

You will acquire awareness of the value of the countless frescoes that embellish the cloisters, churches and palaces in Florence and the "small great" work of art that you have made – and can take with you - will continue to narrate this marvellous city in the times to come.

At the conclusion of the workshop (approximately 1 hour and a quarter), you will continue this experience by enjoying a Florentine lunch in a characteristic and historic restaurant (Giannino - Via Borgo San Lorenzo,33) in the ancient merchant open gallery in the heart of the Medicean district.

This tour is on special request.  Clients must re-confirm tour 24 hours in advance of tour date and time.
