Palazzo della Vittoria

This is one side of the house called "Victory Palace" in corso Francia 23 whose yesterday I published the entrance. I hope to have a chance to take it in another photo able to give better the "idea" on how the Palace (built in 1925 by Pietro Carrera) figure.

Questo è un lato del "Palazzo della Vittoria" in corso Francia 23 del quale ieri ho pubblicato l'ingresso. Spero di aver modo ri ritrarlo da altra posizione per poter meglio dare un'idea d'insieme sul Palazzo (costruito nel 1925 dall'architetto Giovanni Battista Carrera).

  1. Very ornate indeed. 1920s - yes, obvious "modernisme" influence of Gaudi, I'd say!
