  7. That warm light with the shadows is so inviting. I can see why you like this room with its thousands of lights (window panes). With a home that intricately detailed I can see how it might not have gotten finished.
    Hope you have a lovely Sunday, Fabrizio.

  9. This is a great room. It reminds me of the Hall of Mirrors at Verseilles.

  10. Dave-CRDP, I seem to follow you around the blogosphere agreeing with you! It reminded me of the Hall of Mirrors, too. With a difference, though - this room is magnificent, and the story of the palazzo being unfinished lends a certain romance.

  17. I'm curious; why wasn't it finished? The light on the marble floor makes it shine like glass!

  18. How beautiful and of course you captured it so well as always. The windows are spectacular but I also am drawn to the marble floors!
