Illustrated by spectacular images, which are the result of a special photographic campaign conducted by Massimo Listri, this spectacular volume documents the architecture and rich artistic treasures of the famous residence, which is the only example in the Trentino region of a suburban villa from the Council period of the mid-16th century characterized by a portico and loggia arrangement, typical of Veronese architecture of the time.
Inside the villa, Italian, Flemish and German artists created frescoed decorations of the highest quality, including the cycle of twelve frescoes dedicated to the victories of Charles V, those depicting episodes from the Old and New Testaments and a fourth depicting the twelve months of the year.
Alongside the extraordinary frescos, the book presents sculptures and furniture, mainly from the Flemish and German area, and wooden metopes painted with grotesques and male and female portraits that can be traced back to specialists in this type of decoration, influenced by the engraving art of the time.
