From here, King Humbert I watched a fireworks display on the Piazzale Michelangelo in 1890. And here D.H. Lawrence wrote parts of his “Lady Chatterley’s Lover” in 1926. Vasco Pratolini gave it immortality his “Tales of Poor Lovers”. On the Arno embankment, the fabulous restoration of the sumptuous architecture beautifully highlights the original pieces, which include nineteenth-century Murano appliques and chandeliers, a superb island bar, a large chandelier designed by Seguso and an enormous woodcut on gold leaf by Giacomelli of Venice. A rare collection of memorabilia and a pool on the roof with a gorgeous view of Florence.
