Discover the timeless charm of loggias, open-air galleries that have graced Italian architecture for centuries. From the serene beauty of San Michele in Foro in Lucca, Tuscany, to the grandeur of the Ancient Roman forum surrounded by porticoes and loggias, these architectural marvels have captivated visitors for generations. Witness the historic encounter between Francois Pidou de Saint Olon, Ambassador of King Louis XIV of France, and Sultan Moulay Ismael of Morocco, depicted in an oil on canvas painting from 1693. The loggia provides a backdrop to this significant diplomatic moment. Experience the natural wonders of multiview postcards featuring waterfalls and forests in Idaho, or the magnificent bridge loggias and arches erected by Roman Emperors. Step into the ideal city, or The City of God, as depicted in an oil on panel painting from after 1470. The loggia, a staple of Italian city planning, adds to the utopian vision. In the Emilia-Romagna Region of Italy, marvel at the intricate facade of St. George Cathedral in Ferrara, complete with its stunning loggia. Or, explore the Loggia del Capitaniato in Vicenza, Veneto, Italy, a prime example of the Renaissance architectural mastery that put Europe on the map.
