The Galleria Palatina is located in the front rooms of the Pitti Palace in Florence's Oltrarno quarter. The more than 500 paintings in this gallery's vast collection stem mostly from the private collections of the Medici family. The Galleria Palatina has one of the most important collections of Raphael's works, including his celebrated Donna Velata. The works in the Palatine Gallery are arranged in accordance with the aesthetic criteria typical of 17th-century picture galleries, so today's visitor steps into the past upon entering this gallery. The Gallery of Modern Art holds over two thousand works providing a panorama of Tuscan art from the 18th to 20th century. Highlights of the collection include Antonio Canova's Neoclassical sculpture Head of Napoleon, an important collection of works by the Tuscan Macchiaioli painters (similar in style to the French Impressionists), and works by Italian Futurist Gino Severini. The paintings and sculptures are complimented by lavishly decorated rooms where generations of Medici, Lorraine and Savoy rulers dined, slept, entertained and received guests.
