EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1925, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Villa Farnese in Caprarola, Lazio, Italy. The seventeenth-century architectural masterpiece, designed by Giacomo (Jacopo) Barozzi de Vignola, is a stunning blend of Italian Renaissance and Baroque styles. The villa's grand facade, adorned with intricate architectural features, is a testament to the artistic brilliance of its creator. The villa's grounds, also designed by Vignola, are a feast for the eyes, with meticulously landscaped gardens and a series of terraces offering breathtaking views of the surrounding Italian countryside. One of the most notable features of the gardens is the caryatid-lined drinking fountain, sculpted by Pietro Bernini in the seventeenth century. The six carved figures, each representing a different emotion, support the fountain's basin and add an air of elegance and sophistication to the already impressive villa. Johnston's hand-coloured photograph captures the villa's timeless charm and beauty, highlighting the intricate details of its architecture and the lush greenery of its gardens. The image is a precious reminder of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of Italy and the enduring influence of its architectural masterpieces. This photograph is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for history, art, and architecture, and a testament to the enduring allure of Italy's historic buildings and gardens.
