Paladio's la Rotunda-Vicenza, Italy













This was a def must see, although I was disappointed that I could not take pics of the frescas painted on the ceiling.  The paintings were by 3 different Italian painters, dating back to the time the home was built.  It was first occupied by a clergyman, so you can understand why there are so many religious statues and paintings.  Paladio designed this structure, he never lived in it.  With the rolling hills, you could almost imagine being at Monticello.
