The fascinating painting in question is signed by the German artist Peter Pallmann, born in Berlin in 1908. The Santa Trinita bridge, which connects piazza Santa Trinita to piazza de' Frescobaldi, was built in 1252, taking its name from the nearby church of the Santa Trinita. After various collapses and rebuilds in 1557 the shape of the present structure was defined. The planning, commissioned by Cosimo I, was entrusted to Bartolomeo Ammannati, based on a design by Michelangelo, who suggested the modern line of the three arches. This curved line is an innovation that anticipates the fashion of the Baroque.
