Piazza della signoria in the 18th century, from a painting by the venetian bernardo bellotto (1720 -1780) preserved in the budapest gallery. In the palace you can still see the four little lions in the corner, above, on the corbels, and below the railing and the david. In the background, the houses of the mercanzia court, later transformed and unified, especially in the recent restoration of 1905 intended to prepare the headquarters of the agrarian comitium. Above all, however, the left side of the square is of interest, different from today, especially where we see the beautiful corner house with the loggia at the top, and the church of s. Romolo suppressed in 1769, whose façade, from the century. Xvi, was considered to be by ammannati. In one hundred views of ancient florence, florence, by anton giuseppe pagani, 1789. Date: 1 January 1789.
