Palazzo Strozzi

Palace Florence, Italy

Palazzo Strozzi is a palace in Florence, Italy. The Florentine families of wealth and power were continually striving to impress their neighbor and many architectural "novità" (novelties) can credit their existence because one family wanted their house to be bigger, better and more dominating than "the other guy's " mansion. This would be why in Florence we have buildings like Palazzo Strozzi.
