Your Licensed Art Guide: Giuliana

This guided art tour of Florence is led by Giuliana, a fully licensed guide for the cities of Florence and Lucca.

Giuliana holds a degree in Art History from the University of Pisa and has been active in the cultural sector since the early 1990s. Her academic work includes a published thesis on sacred art, focusing on ancient goldsmiths and translucent enamels in the historic dioceses of Lucca.

She obtained her Florentine guide’s licence in 1992 and has since worked not only as a guide, but also as a writer and cultural consultant on projects dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Florence’s artistic heritage.

Giuliana has contributed articles to Florentine cultural magazines, collaborated on the book The Renaissance Chapels of Florence, and worked with provincial authorities on projects such as the promotion of the Park of Pratolino (Villa Demidoff). She has also taught specialised courses for the British Institute of Florence, including lectures on Giotto and his followers.

In addition, Giuliana is a certified appraiser for the Florentine Courthouse and, since 2003, holds an official NCC licence with a minivan, allowing her to lead private excursions beyond the city into the Tuscan countryside.
