Palazzo Nonfinito, Renaissance palace in Florence, Italy

The Palazzo Nonfinito features a two-story facade with a central portal, asymmetric windows, and prominent stone decorations along Via del Proconsolo.

Construction started in 1593 under architect Bernardo Buontalenti for Alessandro Strozzi, but disagreements between architects and owners left the palace incomplete.

The Museum of Anthropology and Ethnology occupies the palace since 1919, displaying collections of artifacts from global civilizations and ancient cultures.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday, providing guided tours in multiple languages to explore both the architectural elements and anthropological exhibits.

The unfinished state of the palace, evident in its interrupted cornices and asymmetric design, became its defining characteristic and inspired its name.
