A lecture by Martina Becattini
Martina Becattini, Senior Curator at the Stibbert Museum, tells the fascinating story of Frederick Stibbert, and Anglo-Florentine born in Florence in 1838, who inherited a vast fortune, with which he acquired a fine Villa in the hills above Florence – and proceeded to fill it with an extraordinary collection of arms and other artistic treasures.
