| Unidentified Italian studio Palazzo Pitti [Firenze album] 1880s (or later) Cyanotype Collection of Michael G. Jacob LL/49816 This photograph appears to have been taken early in the morning when the large square was empty. The position of the camera, exquisite composition of the subject, and a consummate ability to handle the vast space suggest that this view was captured by a seasoned professional on the Florentine photographic circuit.
