Description
Italiano: Sala di gualdrada, soffitto
{{en=Gualdrada refuses to kiss Emperor Otto IV, with an allegory of Florence below. Tradition has it that Gualdrada, a beautiful Florentine girl who lived in the 12th century and whom Dante mentions in the Divine Comedy, disobeyed her father's command to allow Emperor Otto IV, who was visiting Florence, to kiss her. She objected that she would only allow her future husband to do so. The episode depicted here extolls the virtues of purity and modesty, but it also alludes to the independence of the city of Florence. The bond between Gualdrada and Florence is highlighted by the decoration in the frieze showing views of the city and its traditional festivities.}}
