About
The Palazzo Gerini is a Renaissance-style palace located on via Ricasoli 42 in Florence, Italy. Via Ricasoli was previously called Via del Cocomero. At the site of this palace in the 15th-century were two houses owned by the Ginori family, who sold it to Piero da Gagliano, who then sold it to the Salviati family in 1579. The Salviati engaged the architect Bernardo Buontalenti to help restructure the site. However, in 1650, the Gerini family, under the newly minted Marchese Carlo Gerini, secretary of the cardinal Carlo de' Medici purchased the palace and refurbished the interiors, commissioning frescoes from Anton Domenico Gabbiani and Jacopo Chiavistelli. In 1752, the main entrance and stairwell was refurbished under the designs of Gaspare Maria Paoletti.
