"Who now come within rooms which opens at the onset of the third corridor - said Antonio Natali - will find no more in the initial Tondo Doni but another round, this time by Domenico Ghirlandaio, the Adoration of the Magi, until yesterday in the hall of Botticelli. And you will see that it shares with other paintings, as it happened to the Holy Family by Michelangelo; but there stands, finally urging visitors to stand before him. With the reopening of these eight rooms and the demolition of the diaphragm straightened in 2014 at the conclusion of the restoration of the rooms dedicated to the Greek marbles and the Garden of San Marco, it will again be fully accessible circuit which leads - as noted above - at the beginning of the west corridor, just before the door leading into the Vasari Corridor".

In Florence, Salvatore Ferragamo was founded and has grown, drawing notoriety and boost local cultural humus. Participation in this important chapter in the history of the Uffizi shows once again our gratitude to the city and its inhabitants".
