The Medici Palace has an austere and harmonious exterior. Its sheer size along with its bossage work at ground level contributes to this look of austerity whereas the sense of harmony comes from the large number of regularly spaced windows. This is the Tuscan Renaissance style and this palace went on to serve as a model for other palaces in the region. It has a beautiful inner courtyard surrounded by a portico of antique columns and a lovely garden. There is also the famous Magi Chapel which is decorated with frescos dating from 1460 by Benozzo Gozzoli in the international Gothic style of the time.
