One of Florence's richest small museums, the Bardini holds over 3,600 works, sculpture, paintings, antique furniture, armour and the famed bronze Porcellino, displayed against the collector's signature deep-blue walls in his Oltrarno palazzo. Intimate and idiosyncratic, it rewards visitors looking past the blockbuster galleries. A connoisseur's cultural stop.
