PHOTOS & SPANISH VERSION BELOW<\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n

Visiting a house-museum always embraces a closer emotional approach<\/a> to the artist who lived there than just simply observe the works displayed in the neutral and dehumanized rooms of a museum. Casa Guidi<\/strong> was the Florentine residence of poets Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning<\/strong><\/a> for the most part of their married life. Located in the heart of Florence, the apartment has elegant main chambers with an 18th century decoration style and essentially maintains the same furniture that in the Brownings\u00b4 age. They resided here for fourteen years, between 1847 and 1861, and these interiors served as inspiration for some of their greatest poems, like Casa Guidi Windows<\/em> (Elizabeth Barrett, 1851), inspired by her struggle for freedom.<\/p>\n

Despite the fact that the couple spent some time away from Florence, this was, unquestionably, their pleasant family spot. The Browning Institute in New York acquired the apartment in 1971 turning it into a museum, opening the doors to visitors and organizing conferences and exhibitions. In 1990, Landmark Trust participated in the restoration, finishing it in 1995. Nowadays, the apartment can host up to six people and the main rooms can be visited from April to November on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 3 to 6 p.m.<\/p>\n

Casa Guidi, el hogar de la poetisa Elizabeth Barrett en Florencia<\/h2>\n

Visitar una casa-museo siempre aporta un acercamiento emocional m\u00e1s genuino<\/a> al artista en cuesti\u00f3n que si se contemplaran sus obras expuestas en las salas distantes y deshumanizadas de un fr\u00edo museo. Casa Guidi<\/strong> fue el hogar florentino de los poetas Elizabeth Barrett y Robert Browning<\/strong><\/a> durante la mayor parte de su vida matrimonial. Ubicado en el centro de Florencia, el apartamento, parte del Palazzo Guidi del siglo XV, cuenta con elegantes habitaciones principales embellecidas con una exquisita decoraci\u00f3n del siglo XVIII y sigue amueblado tal y como lo estuvo mientras viv\u00edan los Browning. Elizabeth y Robert vivieron aqu\u00ed desde 1847 hasta 1861, y fue precisamente en estas salas donde escribieron algunas de sus mejores poes\u00edas, entre ellas Casa Guidi Windows<\/em> (Elizabeht Barrett, 1851), uno de sus trabajos m\u00e1s significativos, inspirado por su lucha por la libertad.<\/p>\n

Aunque los Browning pasaron alg\u00fan tiempo lejos de Casa Guidi, este fue sin duda su hogar familiar m\u00e1s feliz. El Instituto Browning de Nueva York compr\u00f3 el apartamento en 1971, lo abri\u00f3 al p\u00fablico y comenz\u00f3 a organizar conferencias y exposiciones en \u00e9l. Gracias a la participaci\u00f3n de Landmark Trust, a partir de 1990, se llev\u00f3 a cabo la restauraci\u00f3n de Casa Guidi que se complet\u00f3 en 1995. El apartamento en la actualidad acoge hasta seis personas en estancias vacacionales durante todo el a\u00f1o. Las salas principales se pueden visitar de abril a noviembre los lunes, mi\u00e9rcoles y viernes por la tarde de 15 a 18 horas.<\/p>\n
