Disgusted with this state of things. Prince Ferdinand, being now twenty-two, desired to be allowed to proceed on a tour to see the world ; but was kept for two years before Cosimo would agree to let him go. In 1687, however, Ferdinand was allowed to depart on a tour in northern Italy, after being first betrothed to the Princess Violante Beatrice of Bavaria. In November 1688 he returned, and the marriage was carried out with a most gorgeous display of magnificence. A special gate was opened in t...he wall of the city near the Porta San Gallo, and through this the Princess Violante was drawn, in a car profusely studded with gems, to a chapel erected for the occasion ; there she was crowned by Cosimo with the Grand Ducal crown, and thence was conducted to the Palace in a procession of the most extravagant splendour ; after which the marriage was performed in the cathedral.^ 1 It was on this occasion that^ in order to make space for an increased number of singers, Luca della Robbia's and Donatello's reliefs of the Cantorie were removed from the two organ-lofts, and have never since been replaced in the position for which they wera designed.
