Christian Levett opens his home for tours of his collection, while Grant Cardone prefers art to the stock market. The Boros family live above their art museum.

Real estate entrepreneur Grant Cardone, who has a gallery in his Miami home, said collecting art gives him more fulfillment than investing in the stock market.

Along a corridor in Cardone's home are two pieces by American pop artist Burton Morris, both depicting red Coca-Cola bottles lined up in a repeating pattern named Coca-Cola 50A and Coca-Cola 50B."This I bought from Tommy Hilfiger … it reminds me of the importance of scaling," Cardone said — fashion designer Hilfiger is the home's previous owner.

Grant said he chooses pieces to buy on instinct."I'll try to walk away from it. And if I keep seeing it, or I keep thinking about it, then I go back and say, OK, I'm supposed to have this," he said. Once or twice a week, Levett invites small groups to see his collection, often taking tours himself. Groups are sometimes made up of students from the American colleges that have outposts in Florence, such as Harvard University and New York University, or come from museum or patrons' groups.
