Palazzo Busini Bardi

The Palazzo Busini Bardi, also known as Palazzo Bardi Alle Grazie, is a 15th-century palace located on Via dei Benci #5 in central Florence, Tuscany, Italy. It is in front of the Museo Horne.[1]

The palace was notable as the home of the Count Giovanni de' Bardi and as the gathering place of his Florentine Camerata, a group of poets, music theorists, and humanists who contributed to the transition from the Renaissance to the Baroque and to the creation of opera.[2]

Design of the palace (circa 1430) was attributed to the architect Filippo Brunelleschi by the sixteenth-century art biographer Giorgio Vasari.[3]
