What Galleria dell'Accademia looked like in its prime.
A compact, pale-yellow masonry museum adjoined to academy buildings, roofed in terracotta tiles and set around a small service courtyard; tall rectangular windows puncture the facades. Inside, narrow high-ceilinged galleries and rooms of stone or parquet floors hold a white marble David on a raised pedestal beneath high windows and skylights, unfinished marble 'Prisoners' in alcoves, rows of framed Florentine paintings on cream walls, and display cabinets with historical musical instruments.
