1459 CE
Michelozzo completes the Palazzo Medici-Riccardi in 1459, having capped a traditionally rusticated three-story exterior with a vast cornice, classical in detail but irrational in its huge proportions.
Half classical and half traditional Tuscan in design, the palazzo sets the standard for Florentine town palaces.
