will start the tour at the beautiful Pretoria Square with its marble post-Renaissance
fountain, which was brought over from Tuscany in 644 pieces. Then we will
visit the 15th century Palazzo Abatellis which houses the Regional Art
Gallery, famous for Antonello da Messina's painting of the "Annunciation".
Here you will also see paintings and sculptures that go from the 10th century
Arab period to the pre-Baroque period, including many Spanish and Flemish Renaissance
paintings. Nearby is the 15th century Church of Santa Maria delle Catene considered
a true jewel of the Gothic-Catalan style still common during the Renaissance in
Palermo. We will end the tour at the Church of San Giorgio built in the
austere post-Renaissance style by the Genovese merchants living here during the
15th and 16th centuries. | The
