View of the courtyard

by RUSTICI, Giovanni Francesco, Photo

The Villa Salviati on the outskirts of Florence is a fourteenth-century building modernized in the early Renaissance in a restrained Michelozzian style for Alamanno Salviati in 1445. It was enlarged in the seventeenth century. Presently it is home of the Historical Archives of the European Union.

The photo shows the courtyard decorated with a series of large roundels in terracotta by Rustici.
