## Commentary

In his reshaping of Munich as a modern royal seat, Ludwig I of Bavaria drew on sundry historical styles for palace building. Thus he commissioned from Leo von Klenze a royal palace using forms of the Florentine Renaissance. The outline of façade of the realized palace, the Residenz, follows that of the Palazzo Pitti, while the articulation and rusticated masonry were taken from the Palazzo Ruccelai.
