Palazzo Torrigiani Del Nero, Renaissance palace in Oltrarno, Italy.
Palazzo Torrigiani Del Nero is a Renaissance palace located on Piazza de Mozzi in Florence, distinguished by rusticated stone portals and arched windows. The river-facing facade displays a distinctive window arrangement that reflects the architectural preferences of the period.
Construction of the palace began between 1460 and 1469 under architect Baccio d'Agnolo and was completed by his son Domenico. The Del Nero family acquired the finished building in the 16th century, giving it the name that persists today.
The building displays Mannerist architectural elements through its corner pilasters, window brackets, and the distinctive arrangement of windows on the river facade.
The building stands along the Arno riverbank and can be reached from Piazza de Mozzi in the Oltrarno district. Its proximity to the Ponte alle Grazie makes it easy to visit while walking through this part of the city.
Historical prints show that the upper floors originally featured an open loggia overlooking the Arno, which was later enclosed. This modification created additional interior space while altering the building's original relationship with the river.
