Villa Pisani, Montagnana : ウィキペディア英語版 | Villa Pisani, Montagnana
The Villa Pisani is a patrician villa outside the city walls of Montagnana,〔The most prominent "Villa Pisani", among numerous villas that belonged to this Venetian family, is the baroque villa at Stra (see article Villa Pisani). Another villa whose name invites confusion is the Villa Pisani (Bagnolo) which was also designed by Palladio.〕 Veneto, northern Italy. == Architectural details ==
It was designed by Andrea Palladio about 1552, for Cardinal Francesco Pisani. Pisani was also a patron of the painters Paolo Veronese and Giambattista Maganza and the sculptor Alessandro Vittoria, who provided sculptures of the ''Four Seasons'' for the villa, which is in fact provided with fireplaces to dispel winter chill. Unlike more typical Palladian villas — and their imitations in Britain, Germany and the United States — the Villa Pisani at Montagnana combines an urban front, (''illustration'') facing a piazza of the ''comune'', and, on the other side, a rural frontage extending into gardens, with an agricultural setting beyond. Unlike many of Palladio's villas in purely rural settings, it has an upper storey, set apart from more public reception rooms on the main floor; twin suites of apartments are accessed by twin oval staircases that flank the central recess on the garden side. On the exterior, little differentiation between floors is made: there is no obviously visible ''piano nobile''. On the garden front, access to the park is from the central recessed portico only; a balustrade above a deep ditch keeps out informal wanderers. Construction of the villa was under way by September 1553, and it was complete in 1555. The central block is an uncompromising rectangle, with a pedimented tetrastyle portico, Ionic over Doric, that has been sunk into its wall-plane so that the columns are embedded half-columns. On the garden front, the similar structure instead forms a screen across the fronts of a recessed portico surmounted by a loggia, which become in single recessed central feature. The Doric frieze〔It is fully developed, with bucrania and paterae in the metopes between the triglyphs.〕 runs uninterrupted round the building, further binding all elements together. There are no surviving autograph drawings related to this project. However, Palladio published a version of the building in his ''I Quattro Libri dell'Architettura''. The woodcut shows an idealized, amplified form of the villa, in which the central block is flanked by arched gateway structures that end in tall, three-storey tower-like pavilions.〔''(I Quattro Libri dell'Architettura )'', Venice, 1570 — facsimile of the book at octavo.com ] 〕`
