🔘Villa Caprarola🔘 •Also known as Villa Farnese. •It is a mansion in the town of Caprarola in the province of Viterbo, Italy. •It is built on a five-sided plan in reddish gold stone. •The villa is one of the finest examples of Renaissance architecture. •The project was initiated by then-Cardinal Alessandro Farnese, from the powerful Farnese family, in 1504. •Over the course of the following 20 years, Farnese commissioned a number of artists to paint the rooms with an extraordinary and seemingly infinite collection of frescoes, which are still one of the Villa’s major highlights. •The rooms are named after the iconography which is vividly depicted on the walls and ceilings. •The most significant rooms include the Room of the Farnese Deeds, the Room of the World Map (with very detailed maps of the world as it was known in the 1570s) and the Room of Hercules. . 👉 Follow me Ancient Scientist to enjoy more and more posts about our world's marvellous History.❤ . 📸
