Palazzo Gerini

The Palazzo Gerini is a Renaissance-style palace located on via Ricasoli 42 in Florence, Italy.

However, in 1650, the Gerini family, under the newly minted Marchese Carlo Gerini, secretary of the cardinal Carlo de' Medici purchased the palace and refurbished the interiors, commissioning frescoes from Anton Domenico Gabbiani and Jacopo Chiavistelli.

In 1752, the main entrance and stairwell was refurbished under the designs of Gaspare Maria Paoletti.

In 1798, the family had bought the adjacent palace at #40, and at the turn of the 19th century, Giuseppe Poggi, remodeled it to resemble the other facade.

Until 1825, the palace held a highly prestigious collections of paintings, including works by or attributed to Piero di Cosimo, Domenico Ghirlandaio, Andrea del Sarto, Carlo Dolci, and Rembrandt.
