Ruth Leon recommendsStudiolo – Met Museum
Writer Amor Towles finds inspiration in a visit to one of his favourite places in The Met, the magical Studiolo from the Ducal Palace in Gubbio.
This is a little cubbyhole in a corner of the Met Museum that I’d never heard of until I watched this fascinating short video.
Federico da Montefeltro’s other studiolo can be seen in its original location, in the ducal palace in Urbino. Both rooms exemplify Renaissance humanism at their finest.
