Annual temporary exhibit brings together several works from the Uffizi's storage collection to let the general public see works of art that cannot be shown permanently for lack of space (or at least until the new Uffizi project is completed).

La Bella Italia: Art and Identity of the Capital Cities
From October 11, 2011 to March 4, 2012
Palazzo Pitti
In 1861, Italy became a nation, unifing several independent states that had their own influence, history and traditions. The exhibit, in celebration of 150 years of the Italian state, brings together all these sides of Italy, showing works of art that represent each area before unification. The differences can still be seen in present-day Italy in each area of the country but in 1861 they also led to the "miracle" of unification.
