Description

Villa Badoer in Fratta Polesine (province of Rovigo) was designed by Andrea Palladio, one of the greatest Italian architects of the 1500s, and is inscribed, with other Palladian villas in the Veneto region, as UNESCO World Heritage.
At the centre of a lawn bordered by farm buildings, the residential complex has a simple shape with a monumental portico with pediment preceded by a large, theatrical staircase. “Barchesse” (the servant’s wing of a Venetian villa) raised on columns extend from the sides in a semi-circle. These create a wide curve that encloses the space which makes the building one of Palladio’s most impressive.
The villa, as Palladio himself noted in one of his books, was decorated by Giallo Fiorentino, whose painted fantastical grotesque motifs in the portico and interiors were recovered during restoration work carried out by the Istituto Regionale Ville Venete.
