Palazzina della Livia, Neoclassical palazzo in Piazza San Marco, Florence, Italy

The Palazzina della Livia features symmetrical proportions, clean geometric lines, and balanced architectural elements characteristic of late 18th-century Neoclassical design.

Between 1775 and 1778, Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo commissioned architect Bernardo Fallani to construct this residence for his companion, the performer Livia Malfatti Raimondi.

The building represents a shift from ornate Baroque architecture to simpler Neoclassical designs, reflecting the period's return to classical Greek and Roman principles.

Located at number 51 Piazza San Marco, the palazzo stands near the Accademia di Belle Arti and the Basilica of San Marco in central Florence.

The interior rooms contain original frescoes that showcase the artistic preferences and decorative techniques employed in late Renaissance Florentine residences.
