History
It is one of the most ancient florentine bookshop. It was set
up by Oreste Gozzini in 1850, initially in Piazza del Duomo
(Cathedral Square). In 1887 it had a branch in Rome, 44,
Sant'Ignazio street (via Sant'Ignazio). Thereafter, following
several relocations, in 1959 it finally resettled in via Ricasoli,
in front of the Gallery of the David of Michelangelo. The present
furnishing are those of 1959 and were realized at the time of
transfer in the actual premises. The bookshop occupies three
floors.
