The Uffizzi

I've been in Florence a while now, and I haven't fully taken advantage of all the beauty here. Lately I've been visiting some of these historical places. One great place I went was the Uffizi. It's a museum that houses paintings from the greats Michelangelo, Da Vinci, and Bacilli. Mind you ALL of these artists are from Florence. It also has pictures from Raphael, and he's only from a small town right outside of Florence. Do you feel the greatness??? There I heard some of the stories about Michelangelo who was arrogant, stubborn, and greedy,but he was a genius, so no one could say anything. I learned some things about Da Vinci who was a student for six months before he collaborated with his master on a painting, and his part of the painting was better. After this, his master never painted again, this painting is also at the Uffizi. There are also a lot of Bacciali paintings, who was the first to start making paintings appear more realistic. The greatest part of the Uffizi is that it had a separate corridor that royalty such as the Medici, would walk through over the city, the ponte Vecchio, and the Arno river, to get to the Pitti Palace. This corridor has over 300 self portraits. The Uffizi is definitely one of the top ten tourist sites in Florence.
