Palazzo Capponi-Covoni

The Palazzo Capponi Covoni is a Baroque architecture palace in Florence, region of Tuscany, Italy.

In 1458 two of those houses in Via Larga, today's Via Cavour, were purchased by Agnolo Tani, the director of the branch of the Medici Bank in Bruges.

In 1623, the wealthy banker Girolamo Piero Capponi, bought the property, and commissioned a palace from the architect Gherardo Silvani.

Further expansions and reconstructions took place in 1730 under the brothers Pier Roberto, Giuliano, and Girolamo Capponi.

The interior chapel was refurbished with polychrome marble and frescoed by Vincenzo Meucci with depictions of Trinity in glory and angelic musicians.
