Palazzo dell'Arte dei Beccai, Medieval guild palace near Orsanmichele, Florence, Italy.
The Palazzo dell'Arte dei Beccai presents a Gothic facade with four large arched windows and decorated stone carvings on its piano nobile level.
Built in the late 14th century, the palace served as headquarters for the Butchers' Guild until 1534, when it transferred to the Mason and Carpenters Guild.
The building features the arms of Arte dei Beccai with a long-horned billy-goat symbol, alongside the Florence iris and three interlaced wreaths.
The palace stands in central Florence and currently houses the Accademia Fiorentina delle Arti del Disegno, an institution dedicated to art studies.
The facade decorations, including the prominent billy-goat symbol of the Butchers' Guild, are attributed to the Renaissance master sculptor Donatello.
