"From its prominent position on Lake Como, Villa Balbiano radiates a majestic charm emblematic of the most splendid chapter in the history of great villas in the idyllic Italian region. Each successive owner brought new splendor to the villa through additions, new frescoes and statues, and increasingly extensive and sumptuous gardens. The villa's history reached an acme at the end of the eighteenth century, when the enlightened Cardinal Angelo Maria Durini, as master of the house, transformed Villa Balbiano into a crucible of philosophy and art, framed within the villa's archetypical Roman lines. Today, esteemed interior architect Jacques Garcia has undertaken painstaking restoration work that combines a stunning array of precious materials and a worldclass collection of paintings and antique furnishings set against the backdrop of the original design that had been obscured over the centuries. The glorious new restoration inaugurates a new season in the life of the villa in one of the world's most glamorous locations."--

For centuries Florence has been celebrated for her villa-clad hills. According to an old chronicler, the country houses were more splendid than those in the town, and stood so close-set among theirolive-orchards and vineyards that the traveller "thought himself in Florence three leagues beforereaching the city."Many of these houses still survive, strongly planted on their broad terraces, from the fifteenthcentury farmhouse-villa, with its projecting eaves and square tower, to the many-windowed maison deplaisance in which the luxurious nobles of the seventeenth century spent the gambling and chocolatedrinking weeks of the vintage season. It is characteristic of Florentine thrift and conservatism thatthe greater number of these later and more pretentious villas are merely additions to the plain oldbuildings, while, even in the rare cases where the whole structure is new, the baroque exuberancewhich became fashionable in the seventeenth century is tempered by a restraint and severitypeculiarly Tuscan

Although settled in the mid-1860s, Lakewood waited to incorporate until 1969, when its population was 90,000. It was instantly the third largest city in Colorado and had it all. Lakewood even had progressive ideas for government from a nonmilitarized police department to incorporation of the patchwork of existing sewer, water, fire protection, and park districts. And if it did not exist, Lakewood's community-minded citizens created organizations, committees, and associations, like the historical society and Lakewood on Parade, to fill the need. This can-do entrepreneurial spirit makes Lakewood a livable, small-town, "All-America" city.

Italy boasts a rich cultural history that has found its expression in beautiful, powerful architectural forms, at times measured and hidden, at times ostentatious and triumphant. This volume focuses on about thirty residential villas and palaces, giving the reader the opportunity to visit the magnificent palaces of Venice, Genoa, and Mantua, the elegant villas designed by Palladio and decorated by Tiepolo; the country villas of Tuscany, hidden in olive groves and vineyards; and the austere palaces of Florence-not to mention the Versaces' villa on Lake Como. The interiors of these palaces are magnificent to behold: splendid tapestries, exquisite paintings and murals, sumptuous furniture and interior decoration of all kinds, from elegant carved molding to magnificently inlaid and tiled floors to beautiful renaissance, baroque, and neoclassical furniture.

"In this fascinating volume, [the author] describes and illustrates 250 of the most remarkable villas, some well-known houses, others generally overlooked, covering a span of more than half a millennium, from the Renaissance to the present. Presented here are panoramas as well as details of grand country villas, magnificent suburban estates, appealing vacation houses, and captivating artist's homes, each with its own charm and history, and each of which is part of a style that is important in our century. The illustrations and text by Ovidio Guaita, representing decades of work, are organized by region, north to south from Piedmont and Venice to Sicily. Enriching the coverage each chapter includes a profile of a personality - architect, builder, artist or patron - whose work has had a lasting influence on the style of the villa. Supplementing the color photographs of exteriors and interiors are architectural drawings of houses and maps. The appendices offer a glossary, a bibliography, and a listing of villas that may be visited"--Bookjacket.
