Museo Egizio in Florence

Museo Egizio in Florence

On the first floor of the building of the spreader, also home to the Etruscan Museum, we find the Egyptian museum consists of nine rooms, the second largest in Italy after the one in Turin, the museum is accessed from the hall with number XI proceeding until the room with the number VI, the first visit. The exhibition aims to illustrate the evolution of Egyptian civilization from birth until the end of the empire. The Egyptian Museum was founded in Florence in the years between 1824 and 1828 thanks to the passion of Leopold II of Lorraine in this civilization, this interest became a reality in 1824 with the purchase of the second collection that includes works and finds from the 1400 excavations in the New Kingdom necropolis menfite Ptolemaic era, in 1832 Racolta was enriched by a further 850 items donated by the physician and explorer Alessandro Ricci.

Finally in 1855 the new Egyptian museum was established by reorganizing and combining all the works in the former convent of the Sisters of Foligno, the work was coordinated by Michael Migliarini. The Opificio delle Pietre Dure Museum was founded in 1588 by Grand Duke Ferdinando I, Grand Duke laboratories were opened in a wing of the Uffizi to welcome the staff involved in the processing of rare and precious stones used for decoration of the Chapel of the Princes. Later in 1796 he was transferred to the Leopold Opificio current headquarters in Via degli Alfani. Even today the Factory maintains its tradition of working and restoration of mosaics in semiprecious stones. The adjoining museum Opificio delle Pietre Dure, today a modern specialist in the restoration, is a direct subsidiary of artistic craftsmanship characterized the treatment of stones, which was officially founded in 1588 by Ferdinand I de 'Medici.

The physiognomy of the Museum does not reflect a clear desire collector, but is rather a reflection of life and events of the secular productive activity. The most prestigious creations, often the subject of a gift by the grand dukes of Florence, is preserved royal palaces and museums across Europe, while in production laboratories have remained unfinished works, or the result of subsequent changes and disassembly, and what has survived the loss nineteenth century, which ended in 1882 with the collection of the museum display. This, which includes specimens of great beauty and refinement, it is sufficient to outline a historical manufacturing that leads through three centuries. It also remains an important reserve of ancient marbles and stones collected on the basis of technical salesperson.

The Museum has been renovated and designed by Adolfo Natalini, in 1995. The reorganization of the collection, edited by Anna Maria Giusti, follows a thematic criteria: the rooms created by the exhibition documents the production period of the Grand Ducal Medici and Lorraine, in the halls of the nineteenth-century post-unification period. the floor of the hall is dedicated to processing techniques: the rich sample stone, the work benches, tools, examples to the teaching of certain phases of the production of inlays and carvings. One can thus trace the complete process, from concept to the finished work, and discover the most intimate mechanisms of a fascinating episode of Florentine art history. Access to the Museum is free for youth under the age of 18 years, for groups of teachers and students, for teachers of art history institutes of high school, for Italian journalists, for carers of disabled and for the elderly above 60 years.
