It has taken me five years to discover the Grande Museo del Duomo<\/strong> in Florence. I always thought it was a minor museum, but I was utterly wrong. The way the artworks are displayed in the vast space highlighting its magnificence and the state of conservation of the pieces are truly remarkable. In 1294 the Commune of Florence<\/strong> ordered the construction of a new cathedral dedicated to Santa Maria del Fiore<\/strong> to replace Santa Reparata. The ‘Fabbriceria della Cattedrale di Firenze’ (Florence Cathedral Works) was founded by the Florentine Republic in 1296 to oversee construction of the cathedral. <\/p>\n

The Museo dell’Opera del Duomo<\/strong><\/a> (Museum of the Works of the Cathedral) is today a museum containing many of the original works of art created for the Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral. It opened in 1891, and its 6,000 sq mt surface area \u2014 consisting of twenty-five rooms on three floors \u2014 now houses outstanding collections of sculpture<\/a> that include medieval and Renaissance<\/strong> statues and reliefs in marble, bronze and silver by the leading artists of the era.<\/p>\n

Most of the masterpieces on display were specifically designed to adorn the interior or exterior of the religious monuments that still stand on the museum’s doorstep: the Baptistry of San Giovanni<\/strong>, the Duomo and Giotto’s Bell Tower. Among the museum’s holdings are Lorenzo Ghiberti’s<\/strong> Gates of Paradis<\/strong><\/em><\/a> for the Baptistery of Florence Cathedral, the cantorias<\/em>, or singing-galleries, designed for the cathedral by Luca della Robbia<\/strong> and Donatello<\/strong>, and Donatello’s Penitent Magdalene<\/em>. The collection also includes The Deposition<\/em>, a piet\u00e0<\/em> sculpted by Michelangelo<\/strong> which he intended for his tomb or Brunelleschi’s<\/strong><\/a> model for the dome.<\/p>\n

Grande Museo del Duomo de Florencia: 7 siglos de historia a trav\u00e9s de 750 obras de arte<\/h2>\n

He tardado cinco a\u00f1os en descubrir el Grande Museo del Duomo<\/strong> de Florencia. Siempre pens\u00e9 que se trataba de un museo menor, pero estaba completamente equivocado. Cabe destacar la disposici\u00f3n de las obras de arte en el amplio espacio, lo cual enaltece su magnificencia, y el grado de conservaci\u00f3n de las piezas. La Comuna de Florencia<\/strong><\/a> encarg\u00f3 en 1294 la construcci\u00f3n de una nueva catedral dedicada a Santa Maria del Fiore<\/strong> que reemplazara la de Santa Reparata. La ‘Fabbriceria della Cattedrale di Firenze’ (Obras de la Catedral de Florencia) fue fundada por la Rep\u00fablica Florentina en 1296 para supervisar la construcci\u00f3n de la catedral.<\/p>\n

El Museo dell’Opera del Duomo<\/strong> es hoy un espacio que contiene muchas de las obras de arte originales creadas para la catedral de Santa Maria del Fiore. Se inaugur\u00f3 en 1891 y sus 6000 metros cuadrados de superficie, que consta de veinticinco salas distribuidas en tres plantas, albergan colecciones excepcionales de esculturas que incluyen estatuas medievales y renacentistas y relieves en m\u00e1rmol, bronce y plata de los principales artistas del Trecento<\/em> y Quattrocento<\/em>.<\/p>\n

La mayor\u00eda de las obras maestras expuestas fueron dise\u00f1adas espec\u00edficamente para adornar el interior o el exterior de los monumentos religiosos que a\u00fan se encuentran en torno al museo: el baptisterio de San Giovanni, el Duomo y el campanario de Giotto. Entre las piezas del museo se encuentran las Puertas del Para\u00edso<\/em><\/strong> (originales) de Lorenzo Ghiberti<\/strong> para el baptisterio de la catedral de Florencia, las cantor\u00edas o galer\u00edas de canto, dise\u00f1adas para la catedral por Luca della Robbia<\/strong><\/a> y Donatello, y la Magdalena penitente<\/em> de Donatello<\/strong>. La colecci\u00f3n tambi\u00e9n incluye la Piet\u00e0 Bandini<\/em>, esculpida por Miguel \u00c1ngel<\/strong><\/a> para su propia tumba, o el modelo de Brunelleschi<\/strong> para la c\u00fapula.<\/p>\n
