Florence's Uffizi Gallery holds 9 works by Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Rubens painted on a grand scale — large altarpieces, mythological cycles — and his work assumes a physical relationship with the viewer. In person, the energy of his compositions is overwhelming: figures heave and turn, colours glow, the paint surface is fluid and alive.

The Uffizi is one of the most visited museums in the world — pre-book online at least two weeks in advance, particularly between March and October. The Accademia, home to Michelangelo's David, also fills up fast and should be pre-booked. Florence's major museums are compact and central, making it easy to visit several in a single day.
