, a photographic insight of the Palazzo Ducale in Urbino by Luca Salvo

inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998. At the heart of Urbino
stands the Palazzo Ducale, the magnificent centre of culture and art built by
Federico II of Montefeltro and today home to the Museum “Galleria Nazionale
delle Marche”, one of the most important collections of Renaissance art in the
world including works by Piero della Francesca, Tiziano and Raffaello.
This series of photographs was taken between 2010 and 2012.
