Villa Pisani Hallway, a photo from Venice, Veneto

Photographer's Note

In 1552, in the neighbourhood of the medieval borgo of Montagnana, Palladio realised a building for his friend Francesco Pisani, which is both city palace and country villa. Pisani, powerful and influential Venetian patrician, was the patron and friend of artists and letterati, from Paolo Veronese to Giambattista Maganza, from Alessandro Vittoria to Palladio himself. The latter pair were jointly involved in the construction and decoration of his home. Building was certainly in progress during September 1553 and works were complete by 1555, including the sculptural decorations.

Hi Patricia, beautiful image you have done, I like well it from the center to the left side, the light is amazing and the geometry excellent, the remaining is beautiful too but it's distracting, compliments.
Ciao

Ciao Patricia !
Bella immagine !
Sei riuscita a controllare luci ed ombre in maniera accattivante ma ben pesata.
Il bell'effetto 'tunnel' della prospettiva, mi conduce lo sguardo verso l'ingresso.
Complimenti !
Ciao,
Silvio

Another nice picture from you Patricia. The light coming through the arches looks overexposed but the colors of the walls is great. very good details are shown in this compo. Is good also to see the two people in the background to get an idea of the size of this building.
