LA VILLA DEI VESCOVI
near Padua is said
the finest achievement of Falconetto, the celebrated architect of the
cinquecento. Total symmetry and a superb sense of proportion are mainly
responsible for the perfect balance of the two-story arcaded scructure
Now
restored, the villa is a lasting monument to the glory of the most creative
periods in Italian art history
One of the batts
Its ancient wall paintings
could be least partially restored.
Its sybaritic marble tub and basins
are original and completely shaped out Italian marble
