The Cathedral of the Virgin of Flowers is also called the Cathedral of Florence and the Cathedral of the Virgin of Flowers. Salvatore Ferragamo Aldo Gucci's home is here. In those narrow streets, it seemed that the brilliant horseshoe sounds of the Renaissance could be heard. Architecture and painting also shine with Renaissance light. There are many magnificent churches in the world, but few churches are so charming. This beautiful church with white, red and green granite veneers vividly illustrates the classical, elegant and free interpretation of Renaissance times. No wonder it will be named the Virgin Mother of Flowers. The Church of Notre Dame of Flowers was built in the 4th century at St. Raparata Church. It took Giovanni Medici 175 years to build a new church in 1296. The genius architect Brunesque imitated the church dome designed by the Roman Pantheon, which was a perfect combination of classical art and science at that time. Even the Pope was amazed at the "mythological general" and a musician made a concerto for it. Later Michelangelo imitated it and designed St. Peter's Cathedral in the Vatican, but regrettably lamented that "it can be built bigger than it, but it can't be more beautiful". Most incredibly, Brunesky did not draw a sketch, nor did he write down a set of calculation data, as if the whole dome had been built in his heart. His grave is under the church, and his statue in the church square points to his beloved dome. Inside the dome is Vasari's dome painting "Doomsday Judgment" and on the walls of the hall are murals "Giovanni Aguto Monument" and "Dante and Divine Comedy" painted in commemoration of Dante's 200 years of birth. Up the 463 steps to the north of the church to the dome overlooking the streets of Florence's old city.
