I joined the Friends of the Uffizi the very first year (2006) through my great friend,
Daniela Di Lorenzo and for my love of Florence.
As a Leonardo Member I have enjoyed the trips, events, the company of other
members and learning more about Florence and Italian art. Renaissance
paintings are special to me.
Art has always had an impact on me. I was always surrounded by art and
antiques being born and raised in France, as well as for business. That is part of
our heritage and history.
There is so much to look forward to during the Florentine Weekends. Private
visits to museums (Vasari Corridor for example) and being hosted by Florentine
families.
Florentine trips have been purely magical, unforgettable experiences each time.
A step back into the Italian Renaissance on all levels: artistic, cultural, aristocratic
families and even the culinary. Being among other members is always a joy.
