$Florence, Italy - August 13, 2016: The Loggia dei Lanzi, also called the Loggia della Signoria, is a building on a corner of the Piazza della Signoria in Florence, Italy, adjoining the Uffizi Gallery. It consists of wide arches open to the street. The arches rest on clustered pilasters with Corinthian capitals.\nThe vivacious construction of the Loggia is in stark contrast with the severe architecture of the Palazzo Vecchio.\nIt is effectively an open-air sculpture gallery of antique and Renaissance art.\nFeatured Loggia art\n\n1) On the façade of the Loggia , below the parapet, are trefoils with allegorical figures of the four cardinal virtues (Fortitude, Temperance, Justice and Prudence) by Agnolo Gaddi. Their blue enamelled background is the work of Leonardo, a monk, while the golden stars were painted by Lorenzo de' Bicci. The vault, composed of semicircles, was done by the Florentine Antonio de' Pucci.\nOn the steps of the Loggia are the Medici lions; two Marzoccos, marble statues of lions, heraldic symbols of Florence; that on the right is from Roman times and the one on the left was sculpted by Flaminio Vacca in 1598.\n\n2) Statues Left-Right: far left is the bronze statue of Perseus and Medusa by Benvenuto Cellini.\nThe Rape of Polyxena by Pio Fedi\nMenelaus supporting the body of Patroclus\nHercules beating the Centaur Nesso by Giambologna\nRape of the Sabine women by Giambologna\n\n3) Along the back of the Loggia are five marble female statues (three are identified as Matidia, Marciana and Agrippina Minor), Sabines and a statue of a barbarian prisoner Thusnelda from Roman times from the era of Trajan to Hadrian.\nThey were discovered in Rome in 1541.
