Rick Steves’ Europe Season 12 showcases Europe’s great art and architecture. © 2024 | After its medieval struggles, Europe rediscovered the art of the ancients, led by booming Florence. We revel in the bold spirit of the Cathedral's lofty dome and Botticelli's sweet "Venus." Leonardo da Vinci gives us the iconic "Last Supper" and enigmatic "Mona Lisa." And Michelangelo — sculptor of "David," painter of the Sistine, and architect of St. Peter's — takes the Florentine Renaissance to new heights. #ricksteveseurope #artofeurope #arthistory
