Inhaltsangabe

From Renaissance palaces like Palazzo Farnese to the stunning buildings of the 17th and 18th centuries such as Palazzo Doria Phamphili and Palazzo Chigi, this volume showcases 24 Roman palaces in a historical journey beginning in the Palatino area (from whence the word "palace" originated). Changes in architectural style are linked to historical events, interior decorations are explored in many of the illustrations and the main facade of each palace is displayed in a photograph, print or painting, often supplemented by details of architecture and sculpture. The residences of the kings, popes, politicians, prelates and noble families who have been important to Italian history are revealed.
