Vision Impairment and Blindness

Tactile visits at the Uffizi Galleries

The first volume of the series of tactile books of the Uffizi Galleries is dedicated to the famous masterpiece of the Florentine Renaissance

At the Uffizi, a route for the visually impaired offers the opportunity to autonomously touch some original sculptures from the Medici collection.

The second volume of the series of tactile books of the Uffizi Galleries is dedicated to Raphael's portrait, displayed in Pitti Palace

Visitors may touch ten famous artworks realized in different materials (bronze, marble, wood, semi-precious stones, plaster, baked clay, majolica), works which represent some crucial passages and changes in the art of sculpture from the 19th century to the first decade of the 20th century

A double initiative to celebrate the 2023 International Day of People With Disabilities
