“The House of the Allegory is a building in the historic center of Florence, located in piazza della Calza 2r-3r-4r, corner of via dei Serragli and via Romana 102, in the Oltrarno area. The house is scenically positioned as a large wedge between Via Romana (where the entrance is) and Via dei Serragli, in front of the Porta Romana entrance and over time its façade was decorated with allegorical frescoes, the last of which dates back to 1954 and its title is The life of Florence over the centuries by the painter Mario Romoli.” (Casa dell'Allegoria, Wikipedia)
