Palazzo Gondi, Renaissance palace near Piazza della Signoria, Florence, Italy
The palace features graduated rustication across its three floors, with symmetrically arranged windows framed by radially positioned stones resembling faceted gems.
Commissioned by Giuliano Gondi in 1490, the palace remained incomplete for centuries due to a medieval tower that occupied part of its intended space.
The central courtyard contains Corinthian columns, a 17th-century fountain connected to Boboli Gardens, and a Roman Togata statue displaying classical influences.
The palace maintains its private residence status while allowing scheduled visits to specific areas, including access to the monumental fireplace designed by Giuliano da Sangallo.
The office of Leonardo da Vinci's father once stood in the medieval tower that previously occupied part of the palace's current location.
