Palazzo dei Cartelloni, Baroque palace in Florence, Italy

The Palazzo dei Cartelloni stands on Via Sant'Antonino 11 in Florence, featuring large Latin inscriptions across its main facade and classical architecture.

Mathematician Vincenzo Viviani commissioned the palace in 1693 and dedicated the facade inscriptions to his mentor Galileo Galilei, celebrating his scientific discoveries.

The palace contains restored rooms with 19th-century coffered ceilings, frescoes depicting romantic landscapes, and a classical garden with a double staircase.

The building currently houses SACI Studio Arts College International and remains accessible through contact at +39 55289948 for visits and information.

Giovanni Battista Foggini sculpted the entrance bust of Galileo Galilei, replicating an original work created by Giovanni Caccini in 1610.
