After ten years of restoration and reorganization, the Stefano Bardini Museum is unveiled to the public.
It profoundly influenced public and private collections worldwide, and the museographic solutions adopted by Bardini, such as the interior blue, have been widely imitated.
With great insight, Stefano Bardini rediscovered and spread the taste for Renaissance architectural decorations, stucco and terracotta sculpture, ancient oriental carpets, Venetian bronzes, leathers, and frames.
Compared to changes made from the 1920s to today, which were more related to the project of a Civic Museum than to the figure of the donor, the new setup recovers the spirit of the collection as the antiquarian intended it in view of the bequest to the Municipality of Florence upon his death in 1922.
