"The Uffizi Gallery" is a guidebook that can serve as a virtual companion for your armchair travels as well as a hands-on guidebook for your on-site visits to the Uffizi when you're in Tuscany. This discussion of the Uffizi's collection is different than what you will find in most guidebooks or art history texts. Based on my years of guiding travelers through the Uffizi, I've developed a keen sense of what engages people, and what bores them to death. My goal has been to provide just enough detail and context so that these paintings can come alive for you and make the experience of visiting them interesting, stimulating and memorable. Hopefully this guidebook will help you enjoy the highlights of the collection while avoiding "information overload" as you wend your way through the amazing worlds of imagination that are housed in the Uffizi gallery.
